Let’s connectTechnical Work
Robots, vision systems and machines built for factories, labs and clients. Pick a project and play with it: every one below is live.
SMARTNAV wheelchair
A wheelchair you steer with your eyes or your face, or let it drive itself. EOG, an IR face tracker, depth and LiDAR all run as ROS 2 nodes on a Jetson Nano.
- Inputs
- EOG · IR face · depth · LiDAR
- Compute
- Jetson Nano
Delta robot vision
A camera over a moving conveyor gives a delta robot X, Y and angle for every toothbrush. PCA finds the axis; a head check fixes the 180° flip. Rotate the brush below.
- Output
- X, Y, θ per item
- Stack
- Python, OpenCV
- PCA axis
- 35°
- Sent to robot
- 35°
Street vehicle detection
YOLO11 over a whole town's licensed street imagery, merged and clustered into one record per vehicle for a person to review.
- Images
- 1,844

H-bot XY table
ClearCore firmware for a large H-bot positioning table. Both motors share one belt, so every move mixes the two. Click anywhere on the table below.
- Controller
- Teknic ClearCore
- Move
- X, Y, feed, accel
- Target
- X 0 · Y 0
- Motor A
- 0
- Motor B
- 0
Both motors turning the same way slides the beam along Y. Opposite ways moves the carriage along X. Anything else is a mix.
Lane detection at night
Seven stages from a raw night frame to two fitted lane lines, with thresholds the frame chooses itself. Step through it.
- Scale
- 416.7 px/m
- Camera
- Zed2i
Cosmetic grading
Scratches and dents measured in millimetres and turned into grade A, B or C, with no training data. Drag to compare the photo with what it found.
- Held-out accuracy
- 93.3%
- Test lids
- 180
