Participate in projects from the early design stages and play a critical role in driving them all the way to the final product release;Implement cutting edge tools and techniques to validate numerical results and various other behaviors of the blocks;Help define and implement quality strategies for various features in the Simulink software environment.

● Created a MATLAB program managing hetero-format data importing, preprocessing and spike sorting for extracellular potential recording, which released researchers from tedious and fallible manipulations.● Considerably increased signal-noise ratio of extracellular potential recording for spike detection using zero-phase filtering and principle component analysis implemented in MATLAB.● Rescued recordings highly contaminated by ECG with independent component analysis in MATLAB.● Analyzed time-frequency distribution of local field potential data in MATLAB, including broad-band activity analysis with non-negative matrix factorization and harmonics analysis with f-statistics.● Created an ARM based embedded system managing different types of optical stimulation for neuroscience research, including circuit scheme and PCB design with Altium Designer, C/C++ programming on microcontroller, testing and debugging with Keil, and user interface prototyping with Qt.● Optimized grounding protocol for signal acquisition system that significantly reduced power-line noise.

● Built a quad-rotors aircraft. Implemented Kalman filtering and PID control based on Cortex-M4 with C.● Built a motion capture suit based on MEMS. Implemented SPI, I2C, RS485 and 2.4G communication based on Cortex-M0 with C. Achieved master-slave control of a humanoid robot with a team of 4.● Built an optical line-tracking racing car with a team of 3. Improved the reliability of speed measurement using data fusion technique. Optimized routing strategy.● Used Keil and Altium Designer for embedded software, circuit scheme and PCB design for all projects.

● Participated in testing of STM8L microcontrollers firmware written in C and assembly language.● Designed and simulated a thunder detecting unit in NI Multisim. The unit can utilize thunder power for wireless data transmission thus solved power source problem for the isolated thunder detecting unit.
