I am a PhD student in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Northeastern University. My primary research interests include Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) Systems, Computer Networks, Wireless Sensing and Communications, Mobile and Wearable Computing. If you are seeking any form of academic cooperation, please feel free to email me at chen.guod@northeastern.edu.
At Northeastern University, I’m fortunate to work as a member of Spatial Internet Research Group (SINRG) led by Professor Mallesham Dasari.

💡 Research
I am going to explore the future of immersive media and do something cool to shape the future of communication! Currently, I mainly focus on AR/VR, 3D Mesh/Point Cloud compression, and spatial/volumetric video streaming. I am also interested in AI-based 3D content compression and streaming technologies.
