About me
William Zhang is a rising senior at Weston High School working at the Harvard Computational Robotics Lab. He’s interested in everything robotics, tackling everything from hardware to control.
His research path began with his first paper Wheely: An Accessible Platform for Experimenting with Wheeled-Legged Quadrupedal Robots and he just published his second paper Deep Reinforcement Learning in Mixture of Experts Control System for Blind Wheeled-Legged Quadrupedal Locomotion.

work with harvard's computational robotics lab
William has been a Research Intern at the Computational Robotics Lab in Harvard University's School of Engineering since September 2023.
He works under Dr. Heng Yang, Assistant Professor in Harvard's Engineering School, to design & build a mechatronic pendulum with a minimal sim-to-real gap. In this role, William led testing & data analysis and contributed to a forthcoming publication. He also worked to enhance robotic control strategies.
In my free time, I fence!
I also play in my school band!
