• Improved readability and maintainability of robot control code by migrating from manufacturer’s proprietary language to Rust and Python, as well as refactoring, writing unit tests and adding comprehensive comments• Developed code for data preprocessing in a machine learning project, handling data acquisition, storage, and transformation from LIDAR cameras into robot/world coordinates. Additionally, wrote API for Epson robot to receive movement commands from Python code • Developed code for peripheral devices including communication to force sensors and LIDAR cameras

Tokyo, Japan

• Simulated robot picking movement using OpenRave to determine best layout in terms of robot reachability and throughput, creating simulation tools with Python that reduced time and effort needed during design phase• Set up various types robots at more than 6 customer sites, including factory automation, depalletizing and piece picking. Tested and adjusted motion planning parameters to improve robot picking throughput and reduce error rate. Modelled robot obstacles in order to avoid collisions.• Documented procedures and lessons learned for setup and use of in-house robot controllers, including step by step instructions on modelling and setting control parameters for grippers. This reduced recurrence of common errors and sped up setup process• Debugged both hardware (e.g. electrical cabinet wiring, actuators, sensors) and software bugs at customer site, including fixing and updating Python code for robot picking automotive parts
