Multi-Agent Decision-Support in Adversarial Environments

With my team at Multi AI, I have developed a Multi-Agent Coordination Platform for large-scale transportation and inventory problems in the military. This high-fidelity platform assists wargamers and logisticians in testing and optimizing their …

Autonomous Multi-Drone Mission Planning

During the second half of my PhD research, I became increasingly fascinated with multi-agent drone applications, especially for public safety. Coincidentally, I had also long aspired to start my own company. Thus, while still in the midst of my PhD …

3D Printing with Drones

For most of my PhD research at the University of Texas at Austin, I explored the feasibility of integrating underactuated multicopters (a special type of drone) with 3D printing to enable large-scale and fully remote additive manufacturing. My …

Flying in Cluttered Environments

Part of my research in the Autonomous Systems Group at the University of Texas at Austin included building advanced obstacle avoidance capabilities for the Texas Robotics motion capture space so the group could test their advanced decision-making …

Robot Control and Mechanism Design Projects

This page contains a collection of projects on robot control and mechanism design that I have worked on throughout my graduate studies at the University of Texas at Austin. The first project is a 3-finger gripper mechanism with centralized actuation …

Motion Capture Space with Submillimeter Position Sensing

I oversaw the design, construction, and commissioning of the Texas Robotics large-scale motion capture space in the newly-opened robotics facility at the University of Texas at Austin. Located within the historic Anna Hiss Gymnasium, the motion …

First 3D Printing Attempt with a Drone

Building a drone from scratch is certainly not for the faint of heart. Trying to make the drone deposit material while flying is even more challenging. Here is one of my first attempts.

Predictive Iterative Learning Control

During my Master’s research at the University of Texas at Austin, I focused on enhancing the precision and quality of Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) through advanced data-driven control techniques. My work introduced a Predictive Iterative Learning …

Laser Metal Deposition

At Fraunhofer ILT, I explored cutting-edge additive manufacturing, using Laser Metal Deposition to create high-performance iron-aluminide alloys. By optimizing laser parameters and material transitions, I achieved densities above 99.5%, pushing the …

Electrohydrodynamic Jet Printing

As an Undergraduate Research Scholar at the University of Michigan, I had the opportunity to work on Electrohydrodynamic Jet (E-jet) Printing in the Barton Research Group. This high-resolution printing technique utilizes an electric field to …
