Internships

Evaluated feasibility of a quadrotor emergency three-rotor landing
Implemented and verified IMU-based reduced-attitude controller to stabilize relaxed hover solutions (C++, Python)
Tested dynamically feasible optimal braking and landing polynominal trajectories (C++, Python)

Designed a drop-in replacement system-in-package for the Apple Watch to measure RF coexistence issues only quantifiable in system form-factor (Cadence)
Developed software toolchain to automatically extract, process, and present data from the Apple Watch (Python)
Developed experiment setup to investigate a critical system coexistence issue between a power management IC and a MEMS sensor

Developed hardware interfaces based on Avalon-Streaming for an H.265/HEVC 4K video encoder on a PCIe accelerator card with the Intel Arria-10 FPGA (Verlog, VHDL)
Simulated and debugged hardware with ModelSim, VCS-MX simulators, and custom test scripts (Python)

Designed a multi-purpose hardware validation platform, including schematic entry, component selection, and PCB routing (Cadence)
Developed a fault-tolerant software API for a microprocessor to continuously stress-test (for 500 hours) sensors subject to unpredictable device and digital interface failures in a high temperature/humidity environment (MSP432, C/C++)
Successfully identified a rare reliability failure mode and aided cross-functional teams in arriving at a mass-producible solution
