Xin Zhou
I am a doctoral student of FAST Lab at Zhejiang University, China, where I work on aerial robots, autonomous navigation, swarm robotics, and etc. My mentors are Fei Gao and Chao Xu. My dream is to make aerial robots fly freely like a flock of birds.

EGO-Planner
Initially released in 2020, EGO-Planner is a lightweight, highly-optimized, robust, gradient-based local planner, which significantly reduces computation time compared to some state-of-the-art methods. The total planning time is only around 1ms without ESDF construction.
