Fornax is a general-purpose particle editor I use a lot. The GUI was made in C# .NET, with the preview functionality built in C++ with OpenGL.

The scripting and mission layout tool I built to script missions in Hypergate. It was made in C# .NET.

Some output from a suite of back-testing tools I wrote to develop and test options trading strategies on the S&P 500. These tools were built using C++ and Python.

My automated trading software, written in C# .NET, running on a wall-mounted tablet.

Screenshot of the drone simulation and control software I wrote that powered my drone experiments for my PhD research.

A fun visualization project showing ping results for IPV4 addresses a.b.c.d, for all a, b, c, and a random d.

Hypergate is a 3D space combat game available on Steam for Windows and Linux. It took five years to develop.

Asteroids Millennium is a modern take on an old classic, available on Steam for Windows and Linux.

Secrets of Mars is a game about an autonomous rover that begins to question reality, and its own programming, when things on Mars begin to become strange.

A game that I developed in 48 hours for my submission to the 45th Ludum Dare "Compo" competition using my open-source C media library SIGIL. It ranked 360th out of 2613!

No-Fly-Zone is a short survival first-person shooter (FPS) where you defend yourself against rogue drones. It's a simple open-source example of how to create an FPS with OpenGL.

A render from a raytracing engine I wrote. It features bounding volumes and other techniques for faster rendering, although not in real-time. The object in the center is a mirror.

I modelled the Voyager holodeck and put it into my experimental engine to learn about the differences in lighting between movies and video games, motion blur, and other techniques.

A 3D platformer I wrote to learn how to make a game engine in Vulkan. It supports animated models, diffuse and specular irradiance, shadow maps, multisampling, and more.

Another GIF of the platformer, showing the main menu and most of the world.

The µBee: an inexpensive, 3D-printed drone I built from scratch. Optional mounts allow integration with a motion capture system. I used these drones to conduct my PhD research.

An electric scooter I built it from scratch using plywood, aluminum, and 3D-printed parts reinforced with steel. An ATMega328P powers the logic, motor control, and display.

An animated render of my rugged-terrain, differential drive remote-controlled car. It is nearly entirely 3D-printed, including the controller.

A brief test of a small µBee fleet, detected and controlled by custom software I wrote that also doubles as a simulator to test out behaviours beforehand. A Vicon motion capture system surrounding the lab space captures the 9.5mm markers attached to the drones. For size and weight considerations, only 3 reflective markers are used per drone. The software controlling the µBees detects and tracks these markers over time to associate the detections with drone IDs.

Myself, test-flying the µBee. With the optional motion capture markers, the drone weighs 37g (including the LiPo battery), and has a flight time of up to 3 and a half minutes.

Myself, riding the electric scooter. Its top speed is approximately 16km/h and it has a modest maximum range of about 7km when powered with a 3.3Ah 6s LiPo.

Field tests of the rugged-terrain remote-controlled car on the SFU campus.

An earlier robotics project. A custom vision system captures the 3pi robots and instructs them to maintain various formations as robots are added or removed in real time.

Shortly after starting my master's degree, I built a quadrupedal robot to terrorize the neighbourhood.

A digital clock I built using 3D-printed parts, a real-time clock module, 3 LED matrices, and a custom-designed PCB. The power cable runs into and down behind the wall.

A smart watch I built from scratch, and not just for show—I actually wear and use it. I've added custom functionality for myself that you won't find on regular smart watches.

A partially-disassembled view of my watch. I designed the board, the case, and wrote all the drivers, firmware, and applications. The main chip is an AT90USB64.

An interactive LED coaster that lights up when something is underneath it. The circuitry is all analog, with no microcontrollers.

This is an 8-bit vector gaming console I built entirely from scratch, complete with a game I wrote for it. It's powered by an ATmega1284. The entire project took 3 months to build.

A wired game controller that goes with my custom 8-bit console. Up to 4 of them are supported, although my latest game uses only one of them.

The Pocket Bot is a 3D-printed, 1.5-inch robot with line following sensors, infrared communications (with a server or other Pocket Bots), USB-C charging, and more.

The Pocket Bot's chassis is printed with PLA, with TPU wheels for extra grip. The main controller is an ATmega328p.

A Pocket Bot can be assembled from parts in minutes. When fully charged, a Pocket Bot will run continuously for over 3 hours.
