About
I am a first-year M.S. student at POSTECH, advised by Prof. Seung-Hwan Baek in the Computational Imaging Group. As an undergraduate, I conducted research in the Integrated Plasmonics and Optical Device Laboratory under Prof. Seung-Yeol Lee.
My research lies at the intersection of optics, vision, graphics, and artificial intelligence, where I co-design optical hardware and computational algorithms. I am particularly drawn to the multi-dimensional nature of light, including its phase, polarization, and spectrum, whose expressive power remains largely untapped by conventional 2D intensity imaging.
As part of my alternative military service at Dareesoft, an AI startup, I led the development of RiaaS (Road-Information-as-a-Service), now deployed in cities including New York City and Seoul. The work spanned the full stack, from edge-device systems and AI model training to on-device deployment and web services. I also collaborated with Qualcomm on the NamuhX project, building both an on-device NPU acceleration pipeline and a voice-interactive AI agent.
