Overview
Contributing engineering to a national defense research and development project spanning simulation, signal processing and autonomous systems.
The work
The project applied simulation and signal-processing techniques to autonomous systems problems. Due to the sensitive nature of the work, specific implementation details are not published here, but the areas of contribution include:
- Simulation of dynamic systems and evaluation of control strategies.
- Signal processing and radio tooling, including SDR-based experimentation.
- Autonomous-system behaviours — sensing, path planning and control.
- Applied research support and technical documentation.
Relevance to my client work
This R&D work sharpened the same skills I bring to product engineering: rigorous simulation before shipping, signal and data processing, and autonomy that behaves predictably under uncertainty. It's the research backbone behind the computer-vision and autonomous-systems work in my client projects.
