I am a junior graphics engineer currently working at Tencent. I mainly study computer graphics, especially rendering, but I have also dipped my toes in frontend/backend, OpenHarmony, Android, embedded systems, etc. before, with a few shipped projects. I am very eager to try new things. I have implemented a software rasterizer and a raytracer of my own, together with a few real-time rendering algorithms.

Featured Projects

Star-in Inventory Management System

Star-in Inventory Management System is a full-blown warehouse item management solution, currently used in production by the namesake company. I wrote the frontend in Svelte.

TireAssemble

A software which controls the installation of wheels, written in C++/MFC. Currently used in production in the Dongfeng NISSAN plant in Zhengzhou, China.

Of Shaders and Triangles

A blog project started at the beginning of 2023, I submit a new blog post onto OSAT every Saturday.

GSRast

Full-fledged real-time Gaussian rasterizer and inspector implemented in C++, accelerated using CUDA. Check out the source code here. This is the accompanying software for my thesis.

AdaptiveFlux

Real-time vector field visualization application. Supports both NRRD and plain-text format. Accelerated using CUDA. Source code available here. This is the accompanying software for the vector field paper, mentioned above.

Brasterd

A software renderer implemented in C++, with basic shader support in the form of C++ lambdas. Can render the Stanford Dragon and Suzanne at terrible framerate. Check out the code here.

3DSnooker

A 3D 8-ball game (I couldn't distinguish between snooker and 8-ball in the past) written in C++ and compiled to Android using NDK and OpenGL/ES. Source code is available on GitHub.

SHPlayground

A partial implementation of [Sloan 2002] using CUDA - precomputed radiance transfer without interreflection.

Recon3D

Recon3D is a 3D reconstruction toolkit written in C++. It is able to reconstruct 3D models from multiple images. It makes use of SfM, MVS, and a marching cube algorithm I've implemented on my own.

LuaPT

A pathtracer written in Lua. You can follow the development progress on my blog, or check out the source code here.

You've reached the end!

Wow! I understand it takes patience to go through the whole thing. So thanks for your interest! And as a thank-you, congratulations on unlocking the secret functionality on the website: you can now doodle! Draw anywhere by right-click and holding. Or, if you are using a mobile device, press the following button to active:

Activate!

Your doodle will be seen by the others in real time, and it will slowly fade out during the course of one month. As they say, Have a lot of fun...
Of course, I will monitor the doodles in case there are naughty boys or girls.
