Selected work
Projects
A collection of work spanning robotics, computer vision, data science, and hardware. Filter by area, and feel free to reach out about any of them.
Computer Vision
Computer VisionPedestrian Intention Prediction
A model to predict pedestrian intention from video, built on MotionBERT and trained and evaluated on the JAAD dataset.
Computer VisionConveyor Belt Waste Type Detection
Real-time object detection and segmentation to optimize recycling-facility operations, with performance fit for practical deployment. In collaboration with the CVLAB at EPFL and the startup WasteFlow.
RoboticsFireFighter
SuperThymio, a mobile robot using computer vision and pattern recognition to navigate a simulated city with 3D obstacles — combining global planning, local avoidance, and a Kalman filter to locate and extinguish modeled fires.
Data ScienceProbabilistic Trip Planner
A robust public-transport route planner for Zurich using big-data analytics and real-time data. Built on Spark and distributed file systems, with predictive algorithms that optimize route reliability within given confidence intervals.
RoboticsEvolved Robot
Evolved a robot's brain and morphology with a genetic algorithm, so it learns legged locomotion through evolution and adapts to different environments.
Data ScienceThe Stellar Chronicles of History
An interactive website to explore world history through creative visualizations — JavaScript on the front end, Python for data cleaning and processing.
Data ScienceA Tale of Acting Careers
A data-storytelling website surfacing insights from the IMDb and CMU movie/character datasets, spanning data cleaning, analysis, and visualization.
HardwareAutonomous Hydroponic Farm
A self-regulating hydroponic farm managing heat, light, pH, and nutrient concentration for optimal plant growth — including custom-built sensors for nutrient concentration and pH from basic materials.
HardwareMEMS Micro-Mirror Actuator
A MEMS device to manipulate a micro-mirror within optical-fiber paths, with a laterally moving actuator that locks at extended and retracted positions. Spanned design, COMSOL simulation, clean-room fabrication, and evaluation of issues like stiction.
HardwareSileX Balanced Mechanism
A dynamically balanced mechanism with two degrees of freedom in roll and pitch, moving a mirror that reflects a laser for microfabrication. Built for EPFL's second-year 'Conception de Mécanisme' course.
HardwareTemperature Controller in Assembly
An app written entirely in assembly that controls room temperature: it measures temperature, drives a vent via a servo based on user thresholds set on an LCD, and raises an alarm past the limits. Built for EPFL's 'Microcontrôleurs' course.
HardwareLogic-Circuit Multifunction Clock
A digital watch built from logic circuits alone — adjustable clock, alarm, stopwatch, timer, and timezone control, with intuitive inputs and audio notifications. Made from scratch for EPFL's 'Système Logique' course.
SoftwareArchipelago City Maker
An application to build island cities with houses, production sites, and transport nodes across interconnected islands — create, save, and load layouts, scored on commute distance, live/work balance, and population capacity.
HardwareMechanical Design of a Seeder
A seeder designed from scratch to a fixed specification, for EPFL's first-year 'Construction mécanique' course.
