Multifaceted Software Engineer
Building the technology behind driverless mobility services at Vay. Vay enables remote driving so professionally trained operators can drive vehicles in real time from a remote station — delivering driverless rental cars and other mobility services on public roads today, while laying the foundation for scalable autonomous mobility.
Together with Robert Walter, we developed a simulation technology to create high fidelity synthetic ground truth sensor data (e.g. image, point clouds) for training and validation of autonomous systems that need to operate in the physical environment.
Engineering and research in advanced driver assistance systems and self driving components for trains. I was part of the localization and collision estimation team where we combined map localization and sensor fusion algorithms. Integration of various new hardware sensors into the ROS Ecosystem was an integral part of the autonomous emergency braking system.
Features real-time rain alerts for your location up to 60 minutes in advance and provides high resolution fluid radar images. My Role: Research and development of novel precipitation nowcasting simulation and visualization by leveraging motion tracking and extrapolation. Target platforms were iOS, Android, and HTML5.
Advanced real-time weather visualization targeted primarily to mobile devices using OpenGL ES 2.0. I developed the data production and the majority of apps for all supported platforms (iOS, Android, Windows 8+10, Mac, tvOS, HTML5).
AAA military shooter with superior narrative released to Playstation 3, Xbox360 and PC. I was responsible for implementing various graphical features extending Unreal Engine 3, e.g. global illumination for dynamic objects using spherical harmonic irradiance or creation and maintenance of a multi-platform parallel computation API.
