Conceived and transformed an initial concept, progressing from initial whiteboard sketches to the realization of a comprehensive, full-scale prototype of a novel morphing wing technology for UAVsResponsibilities included product design and development on Solidworks 2022, project planning and task delegation, and ensuring adherence to project timelines.

Spearheaded system development of a low latency sensor datalogger in C++ using PX4 firmware with MAVSDK, including sensor specification and full-stack programming, while coordinating development with teams from Canada, the UK, and Germany.Learned and designed a PCB on Fusion 360 to ease sensor integration, improving manufacturability and scalability. This.

Los Angeles, CA, US

Persuaded the firm to adopt a fully simulation-based product development on Airsim in conjunction with PX4, MAVSDK, and ROS, potentially decreasing costs, increasing safety, and encouraging aggressive development of robust algorithms. Implemented Obstacle Avoidance with PX4 flight controller inside Airsim+PX4 and ROSDesigned and implementeda) Safe landing.
