Liquid Propellant Rocket Engine

I've been working for the past year on a liquid propellant rocket engine. A previous generation of students made a nozzle, injector, and prototyped a test bench. I improved and instrumented the test bench, designed and built the pneumatic system to manage pressure in the tanks, and made a centralize...

Tattoo Robot

There are a few examples online of people modifying 3D printer by attaching a tattoo machine to the toolhead to get a tattoo. These attempts are generally not very successful. I decided to make an advanced tattoo robot from scratch, using precise sensors and a more appropriate structure to solve the...

Polyarticulated Bio-Inspired Climbing Robot

Developed a biomimetic climbing robot utilizing three 3D-printed TPU tentacles. The prototype executes a 9-step caterpillar-like sequence, supported by custom-machined Teflon bearings and a latex-lined grip. Each tentacle is independently actuated by a single motor pulling an internal wire.

Ultra-Compact Star Tracker

Designed, machined and assembled an extremely compact, light and cheap star tracker to do long-exposure astrophotography with minimal equipment and setup time. Unlike my telescope mount, it is designed to be used with a relatively short (150mm) focal length, which is much more forgiving.

Cookie Analysis Software

As president of my university's cookie association, I decided to code a computer vision tool that would automatically measure our cookies from a picture. It is now able to generate reports featuring statistics about number, size, roundness, and more !

Mandelbrot Set Explorer

The Mandelbrot set is the most well known and studied non-self-similar fractal, a mathematical figure with an infinite level of detail. I made a program to explore visualizations of it, and generate videos of zooms into the set.

Computer Science and Robotics Club

Back in high school, I created a Computer Science and Robotics club in my school and assembled a team of 10 students. After failing to obtain funding from my school's administration, I contacted a local FabLab that let us use their machines and components for our projects, for free !
