Latest Works

Hardware & Mechatronics

3-Axis Brushless Gimbal & RC Integration

Designed and modeled a 3-axis brushless camera stabilization mechanism from scratch using FreeCAD. Assembled the hardware stack and performed real-time PID tuning, analyzing XYZ dynamic response curves under simulated high-vibration movement. Interfaced the controller directly with flight controller PWM pads for seamless integration with RC transmitters.

Tech Stack: FreeCAD, Brushless Motors, PID Tuning, PWM Control, RC Protocols.

Computer Vision

AI-Powered Ground Control Video Station

Developed a high-performance video monitoring application optimized for analog (UVC/ADC), digital, and screen-captured feeds. Real-time object detection utilizing the YOLO framework embedded directly into the video stream. To optimize performance, the system allows on-the-fly confidence/sensitivity threshold adjustments, model hot-swapping, or running multiple models simultaneously. Live digital zoom, brightness, contrast, sharpness adjustments, and a dedicated black-and-white mode.

Tech Stack: Python (Tkinter), Computer Vision (YOLO), Low-Latency AV (UVC/ADC), UI Customization.

Desktop Utility

Smart Crosshair Overlay & Utility

Developed a high-performance, ultra-lightweight (only 300 KB) desktop overlay utility designed for fast-paced shooters. Built using C++ and Win32 API to achieve zero-lag execution and a minimal memory footprint. Integrated a dynamic visual algorithm that analyzes screen brightness context in real-time, automatically adapting the overlay color to guarantee maximum visibility under high-contrast environments.

Tech Stack: C++, Win32 API, Low-Level Optimization.
