overview.

Developed an autonomous oropharyngeal-swab robotic system for high-efficiency, contactless pandemic response, integrating a multi-modal pipeline for precision and safety. We engineered a gesture-based HRI using Leap Motion to enable intuitive, touchless control over the sampling process. The system utilizes a vision-based detection pipeline for target localization and optimized motion planning algorithms to execute collision-free trajectories within the oral cavity. The integrated platform successfully streamlined the sampling cycle to 42 seconds while maintaining robust data synchronization through a custom mobile application.

Open to collaboration.

I'm always interested in new opportunities and exciting projects. Whether you have a project in mind or just want to chat about tech, I'd love to hear from you.
