- Developed brand-new software features for our embedded Linux product. Set up the communication with ADC, Temp, LED, and many other sensors using SPI, UART, I2C, PCI.- Created new streamlined hardware and software test procedures using Robot Framework for new products before the release. Analyzed various schematics to set up the tests.- Utilized Docker and Yocto to create Over The Air updates available for the Qualcomm products- Worked on the GitLab CI/CD pipeline to ensure that the new software build is made overnightwith every new software update.

- Part of the Commercial Aviation Solution segment of the company- Conducted hardware tests to make sure the equipment follows the regulations- Worked with the Data Analytics Division to make a Flight Path Data Analyzer Software

- Part of the Triton NeuroTech team working on a prosthetic arm controlled by EMG (electrical signals from muscles) data from the OpenBCI Cyton.- We 3D printed a physical prosthetic hand and gathered signals from hand muscles to classify and replicate the motion on a prosthetic arm.- Participated in setting up communication between the Cyton, computer, Arduino, and the motors as well as recorded training data for the classification model using Lab Recorder software.- Trained the model to classify EMG data and categorize hand/finger motions. The model was trained on 7 hand gestures, potentially adding more gestures as more data is gathered.- Various filters, normalization, and sampling techniques were used to prepare the EMG signals for the classification

- Created a model to determine whether an essay was written by a specific student or ChatGPT. The model was trained on 3 classes: essays written by me, essays written by ChatGPT with the same prompt, and essays written by ChatGPT after viewing my essays and attempting to imitate my writing.- Utilized various NLP techniques, including text processing, stop word removal, text augmentation techniques, tokenizations, TF-IDF, recurrent neural networks, feedforward neural networks, and GPT-2 model to differentiate between classes.- The final model was 96.5% accurate at determining whether an essay was written by me or by ChatGPT, even when ChatGPT tried to imitate my writing.

- Led a joint hotel recommendation project between Rustar Tourism and Nugios Technology.- Created a hotel recommendation system tailored to customers and agents, taking into account previously booked hotels, hotels booked by similar customers, currently trending hotels, and popular hotels this month.- Cleaned and prepared the data, conducted data analysis to look for patterns and outliers in the dataset, and tested various recommendation algorithms, including ALS, SVD, and KNN. Created a custom algorithm tailored to the project.- The final project combined recommendation algorithms, user purchases, trending hotels, and customizable parameters for the company. - The final product is being applied and used by the company for the purchases at the moment.

- Remotely tutored math and physics to middle school students, occasionally tutoring European history, science, and English per parents' requests.- Students who struggled with math initially ended up mastering two years' worth of material in just a few months (Had to teach 5th graders with the 8th-grade textbooks towards the end).- Tutored all clients for almost two years straight while turning down requests for more lessons and new students due to schedule conflicts.- Taught basics of coding using Scratch and Arduino and prepared and assigned homework individually for each student.

- Made a glove that categorizes hand motion using various sensors (Hand raise, clap, rest state)- Used Pico W and the accelerometer to capture motion values from a glove and transmitted data from Pico W using a hotspot to a computer.- Used machine learning to categorize the motion based on accelerometer values.

- Member of the RobotX Marine Boat Competition Challenge Team (Team Inspiration from UCSD)- Created a shooter capable of tracking a given object, locating it, measuring the distance to the object, and shooting a ball at it with a specific trajectory based on the distance- Led vision tracking using Yolov5 (object detection model) and OpenCV to track targets- Utilized PID and Arduino to align the shooter with targets ranging from 3 to 11 feet away- Employed Lidar distance sensing to shoot balls at a specific speed based on the target's distance

- Utilized various models, including Linear Regression, Decision Trees, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Random Forests, to predict the Stock Market feature from the Numer.ai dataset/competition.

- Conducted a data analysis project on the correlation between the United States' economy and divorce rates- Gathered datasets regarding unemployment rates, median household income, and GDP per capita, and found that these metrics did not significantly correlate with divorce rates in the United States since the 1950s

- Collaborated with a team to design a Fidget Cube with LED lights that activated when the cube was lifted and played with- Utilized accelerometer sensors, CAD, and 3D printing with transparent resin to create multiple prototypes with different light sequences- Regularly received feedback from customers and adjusted prototypes accordingly

- Assisted attorneys and investigators with case organization and research. - Served subpoenas, collected records and old cases, attended court trials, and asked clients to sign the Release Of Information forms. - Conducted background searches, helped with analyzing the pieces of evidence (Especially the ones that required image searching engines), and visited detention facilities to speak with the clients.

- Led a team of 60+ people and coordinated communication between software, hardware,assembly, business, and manufacturing divisions. The team competed nationally two years in a row and won multiple awards, including multiple safety awards and an engineering inspiration award- Worked on assembling and manufacturing Robot parts for 3 different competition seasons- Used various tools, including CNC, bandsaw, drill press, sanders, grinders, drills, mills, miter saw, panel saw, various hand tools, and other standard tools in the woodshop. Worked with wood, aluminum, and steel as well.- CADed the robot with the team and taught Computer-Aided Design using Solidworks to the new members- Wired and taught Wiring Practice/Basic Physics of Electricity/Electrical Components for the robot to other members and was in charge of electronics for various competitions

- Developed multiple 3D games and 2D games using Unity3D and C#- All games were in arcade format and did not stop until you lose- Utilized collision detection, map generation, camera movements, and joystick control- Ran the games on Android Phones as well as PC devices
