Investigate the potential of sampling-based Model Predictive Control (MPC) for dexterous in-hand manipulation through simulators. The primary aim is to achieve dexterous manipulation on a physical robot hand and integrate a Large Language Model to automatically generate the cost function for specific tasks.Grade: 6/6

• Researching and testing the capabilities of numerous new generative artificial intelligence tools for potential application in our development processes.
• Developing a demonstrator of a search engine that, through the use of a Large Language Model, can identify suitable internal experts and essential project information from project data.
• Measuring a fine positioning system in the sub-micrometer range, including developing test setups, conducting and evaluating measurements, writing structured test reports, and presenting the results to the team and.

Bachelor's Thesis at the Multi-Scale Robotics Laboratory. Different pyroelectric nanoparticles were designed, fabricated and modeled. The FEM modeling was done in COMSOL and their physical properties were tested with various instruments (SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD, FT-IR, AFM, PFM). The pyroelectric catalysis efficiency for wastewater treatment was tested by.

Taught weekly Analysis III exercise sessions to over 100 third semester students. The students nominated me for the "Best Teaching Assistant Award" organized by D-MAVT ETH Zürich.
