CEO and programmer

San Francisco, CA

Built a 3D engine from scratch for researching novel reconstruction of 3D scenes from a single 2D photograph. Moved our findings onto Autodesk's standard in-house rendering system for research purposes. Learned about OpenGL, shaders, and raytracing techniques.

Irvine, CA

Made heavy modifications to Karem’s FlightLab models. Integrated the FlightLab flight dynamics model with a Simulink control system to produce a realtime pilot-in-the-loop simulation. Architected a software framework that allowed the same software to run on desktop PCs, baremetal ARM processors, and the Integrity RTOS running on a PowerPC. Heavily involved.

Laurel, MD

Designed and implemented a priority-based hardware sharing system which allowed multiple agents (some remote and some local) to monitor and control a single piece of hardware for JHU. This was flight-tested on RC-scale autopilot-controlled flying wing hardware. I took measurements of the JHU hardware and constructed an identical testbed when I returned to.

Boston, MA

Implemented TRACS 2.5D, a program that graphically represents the decision making process of a human user interacting with an automated system. Developed Hidden Markov Model training schemes and HMM visualizations to evaluate progress.

Worked in several capacities on the A160T Hummmingbird. Added actuator to existing tail rotor test rig, all the way from parts acquisition to installation to data acquisition to control software for the actuator. Did some work in flight telemetry data analysis, including identifying a whole class of anomalies as magnetic interference from the Earth's.
