Echo Labs is building Vista: eyewear leveraging augmented reality and artificial intelligence to generate real-time subtitles for the real world.

We build, design, and race autonomous vehicles. We won 1st place at both the 2022 and 2021 evGrandPrix autonomous series.- Leads software direction and manages the team as a whole- Helped implement our occupancy grid based reactive navigation algorithm.- Redesigned the ground segmentation phase of our LiDAR based perception pipeline, improving cone detection range by 50%.- Led the development of the embedded software used for controlling all the low level systems on our go-kart. - Dockerized our ROS 2 development and build environments, increasing reproducibility, simplifying CI, and reducing the barrier of entry for contributing to the project. - Helped develop and integrate a yolov7-tiny based traffic cone detection model.- Developed our LiDAR-camera sensor fusion pipeline, doubling our reliable object detection range.

Interned 2x, received full-time offer as a sophomore.- Optimized the performance of a model predictive control algorithm by 30%, allowing a longer horizon at the same speeds.- Integrated our autonomy stack with the SCRIMMAGE simulator, allowing a faster development iteration cycles than with our high-fidelity simulator.- Created a moving object position and velocity prediction algorithm using kinematic models.- Developed the automated tests and visualization tooling for all of the above.

- Designed and implemented the backend for our automatic text banking service, which handled ~1,000,000 messages total and had peak throughputs of ~60 messages/sec.- Wrote the cloud functions powering our college voter registration tool, which got hundreds of thousands of hits.StudentsForTomorrow is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit with the goal of putting young people into office. During the 2020 presidential election, we registered 65,000 newly eligible college students to vote.

Project Paralink has manufactured and donated over 1,000,000 units of PPE across the US to the places that need it the most.
