Work Experience

Hardware Automation Engineering Intern - iRobot

Bedford, MA

Jul 2023 - Dec 2023

  • Created C# libraries to program power supplies conveniently with SCPI commands converted to C# methods establishing serial communication over USB or RS-232.
  • Implemented image processing such as Bilateral Filtering, Canny Edge Detection, Binary Threshold, and Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) to grade dirtiness of tile images in both Python and C#.
  • Created Python script to convert undistorted input images from calibrated fisheye camera into drawing trajectories for robots to follow during intern hackathon project.
  • Evaluated a robot's motion characteristics including parallelism, straightness, and coverage utilizing motion data captured by Qualisys.
  • Controlled a differential wheeled robot encoding joystick inputs, mapping them into wheel speeds, and sending to the robot as a part of iRobot Intern Challenge.
