Responsibilities include designing and developing computer vision and machine learning algorithms, testing and demonstrating sensor systems for clients at the mines and ensuring that the team's QA standards are maintained.Main projects:* Designed, built and tested a robotic sensor for automated inspection of underground tunnels for the gold mining industry. I lead the development of this system, which involved extensive C++ and Python coding, computer vision algorithm design, electronics, mechanical conceptual design, systems integration and field testing in 3km deep mine shafts. I was extensively involved in the project from initial brainstorming through to field testing, final product delivery and demonstration.* IntelliOre Truck online particle size segmentation: I developed a real-time computer vision-based platform for the automated measuring of particle size distributions of ore as the ore is dumped from mining trucks into the primary crusher.
