I’ve Worked With

2018

Project – R²D(Robot)

In April 2018, I designed and built a humanoid robot, applying my expertise in robotics and embedded systems. This project involved a mix of mechanical assembly, programming, and integration of various sensors and actuators to mimic human-like movements and interactions. It was an exciting, hands-on experience that deepened my understanding of robotics and the potential of humanoid applications in the tech field.

2017

Project – R²D(Drone)

In November 2017, I developed a hexacopter, which involved designing and assembling a six-rotor aerial platform. This project required in-depth knowledge of aerodynamics, motor calibration, and control systems to ensure stability and precise maneuverability. The experience enhanced my skills in drone technology, embedded programming, and real-time control, further fueling my passion for UAVs and robotics.

2018

Project – R²D(Rover)

In October 2015, I built a rover designed for rugged terrain navigation and remote operation. This project involved selecting durable components, programming control systems, and implementing sensor-based navigation to enable autonomous movement. Working on the rover deepened my understanding of robotics, sensor integration, and real-world mobility challenges, laying a strong foundation for my work in advanced robotics projects.
