about
i'm an ece/cs student at wpi! my work spans FPGAs, embedded systems, PCB design, and hardware diagnostic tools.
i'm currently working on
projects
campus rf spectrum visualizer
a light art installation that visualizes real-time radio frequency activity on campus using an rtl-sdr, raspberry pi fft pipeline, and a custom hub75 led matrix display.
zynq fpga data acquisition
a verilog-based data acquisition pipeline for simulating sipm pulses on a zynq-7000 fpga, connecting programmable logic to the arm processor over axi for real-time readout.
custom macropad pcb
a custom macropad pcb with switch matrix and diode isolation designed in kicad, paired with arduino-based firmware for usb hid and matrix scanning.
projector-based sla 3d printer
custom DLP stereolithography 3D printer, integrating a hand-fabricated mechanical frame, Arduino-controlled Z-axis motion, and projector-based layer exposure to produce multi-layer resin parts.
