VitalStep
An innovative online square dance platform for senior residents
In response to the challenges faced by China’s aging population, including mobility restrictions, health concerns, and social isolation, calls for innovative approaches to enhance their physical and mental well-being. Square dancing, or ’Guangchang Wu’, is a communal activity where Chinese elderly gather in public spaces to dance together, combining exercise with social engagement. We developed VitalStep, an online co-dancing app tailored for people aged 45-70 to participate in square dancing virtually. Through collaboration with square dance communities, we ensured our app met the needs and preferences of its target users. Early findings suggest that the app successfully motivates seniors to be more physically active and socially engaged.

Mechatronics and Industrial Design Intern
Industrial design and mechanical design intern at Kabam Robotics, Singapore
At Kabam Robotics, I contributed to the development and design of brand-new security robots. Focused on mechatronics and industrial design, I was involved in projects such as the new ID of a hybrid indoor-outdoor robot, the creation of a mechanical recovery vehicle for outdoor robots, and the development of ergonomic solutions for production tools, etc.. Through customer interviews and iterative design, I helped shape a product that aligns with market needs while refining the company’s approach to user-centered design and innovation. This experience reinforced my understanding of how design, technology, and market dynamics intersect in the robotics industry.
