Building 3D vision platforms for high precision object detection.

Developing contact-exploiting reactive motion planning algorithms for navigation in a cluttered environment.

Built/Led a team of 20+ engineers and product managers over a span of five years.

Contributed to the architectures and detailed designs of multiple generations of Apple Watches.

Developed the Haptics and Acoustics modules for over 20 components, and brought designs into mass production.

Designed an automatically triggered landing gear (weight 3.8g) to mimic the behavior of bird claws, which enabled an UAV to land on vertical walls of different textures including polyethylene, wood and concrete.

Created models and 3D printed prototypes with special consideration of strength-to-weight ratio.

Tested and analyzed the performance of the landing gear using high speed cameras (1/2000 sec). Improved designs based on the retracting speed and momentum of the snapping arms.
