WORK IN PROGRESS

This is a robot I've been working on in my spare time. I wanted to get a better grasp of ROS, so I decided to make this robot to help me do so. I want it to be able to autonomously navigate and provide me a good foundation for future projects. Read more...

After 2 years of cancelled competitions thanks to the pandemic, I finally got to attend URC with my robotics team, R3! The competition pits student-built rovers from around the world in a series of challenges at the Mars Desert Research Station in Utah. We placed 11th out of 99 initial participants. Read more...

This module mounts onto the R3 Mars rover with the ultimate goal of determining if life exists on Mars. It collects and manipulates fake Martian soil samples to extract and detect lipids and proteins. We competed using this module at URC22. Read more...

04/2022

This was my final year Capstone Project. I led my team to build a 3-Degree-Of-Freedom (3DOF) gimbal mechanism to mount onto an existing haptic device. The device allows users to interact with virtual objects in a Unity-powered virtual environment. Read more...

03/2022

This is my final project from my Sensors & Measurements course made using an Arduino kit and household items. Although it wasn't particularly challenging, I thought it was an interesting use of a basic Arduino kit and was surprised by its accuracy. Read more...

11/2021

I led my team to build a portable fridge at the Ryerson Engineering Competition's Senior Design Challenge. It can be battery powered and features closed-loop temperature control using a temp sensor and cooling element. We were the runners up. Read more...

02/2021

I led the design and manufacture of new motor mounts for the R3 rover's wheels. My team used topology optimization to make new mounts that were 50% lighter than the previous versions. Each mount can bear the full load of a 1m drop. Read more...

10/2020

This was one of my first projects as a part of my robotics team. This was designed to transport and squeeze a saturated sponge at the Canadian International Rover Challenge. Looking back, there's definitely some changes I would make. Read more...

06/2020

I designed some testing rigs for practicing our rover's arm dexterity. It features buttons, switches, a drawer, and a keyboard compartment that the rover must manipulate. The rigs were modelled after the "Mars Lander" in the competition. Read more...

04/2020

This is the final project of my Machine Design course. We were required to design a gearbox for an aircraft propeller and perform stress and fatigue analyses. I performed the bulk of the technical work and my team achieved the top score in the class of 93%. Read more...

10/2019

This was my first time machining parts as a part of my machining course. I applied everything I learned in the course into these parts including end milling, face milling, boring, reaming, chamfering, turning, knurling, thread cutting. Read more...

08/2019

I worked at a small robotics education company called CAROBOT during summer 2019. They develop custom educational robotics and electronics kits, and I was tasked with creating 3D models of all kit components to use for instruction manuals.

04/2019

This was the final project of my manufacturing course. We were required to build a rubber band car out of limited material (acrylic sheet, wooden dowels, some fasteners, glue) to perform a race and hill climbing challenge. My car was the fastest in the class.

12/2018

This was a semester long project in my Systems Design course. We were tasked to design a leaf management system using a strict systems design process. We ultimately came up with a leaf vacuum after thorough research and analysis.

11/2013

For a grade 9 school project, we were tasked with completing a year long personal project of our choosing. I chose to make a steam engine, and here is the 3D model of it. Of course, it's not that impressive, but it's cool to see how things started. Read more...
