FEATURED PROJECTS
F1TENTH Autonomous Racing Stack (ROS 2)
A hands-on ROS 2 learning implementation built on the official F1TENTH Gym simulator, progressing from safety braking (iTTC) and PID wall following to cubic spline raceline generation, pure pursuit, and multi-agent dynamic overtaking.
Advanced Safe Load Indicator (BE Capstone)
Final-year team capstone: an affordable, retrofittable Safe Load Indicator for small pick-and-carry cranes, built on a custom 4-axis crane test rig with load, angle, extension, outrigger and IMU sensing, ESP32 FreeRTOS firmware and a live dashboard.

Crane Health & Operator Monitoring System
A dual-module crane monitoring system using MPU6050 IMU and ESP-NOW to track boom orientation, jerk magnitude, and lift duration for unsafe operation alerts and lift profile reconstruction.
