- Set up and maintained the infrastructure for the space's drone cage. Also developed ROS/Python programs for the autonomous flight of Crazyflie drone swarms, which worked in conjunction with the cage's MoCap system.- Developed motion planning demo programs using ROS, Python and C++ for the space's Kinova arms, so as to execute tasks such as object picking, obstacle avoidance, and vision-based tracking using depth data.- Implemented neural-based vision programs, such as 3D pose tracking, monocular depth estimation and 3D segmentation, to showcase the capabilities of the space's VPUs.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States

- Integrated a ROS Nav2 autonomy stack into a new NREC robot, combining LIDAR and camera data in order to enable autonomous, unsupervised navigation.- Co-led the 2024 summer cohort into building a brand new robotic system showcasing existing NREC capabilities, serving as a model for NREC's future projects.- Field tested computer vision hardware and algorithms with the goal of verifying if these technologies met the project sponsor's requirements.- Developed a ROS 2 workshop to be used by NREC staff s that future teams become familiar with ROS and C++ development and standards.
