Illustration of a home-built handheld game console: a green shell with corner screws and a strip of bare circuit board under the screen, a pixel-art Snake game chasing an amber apple, four direction buttons on the left and two action buttons on the right.

What I did

A handheld game console on an Arduino Mega with a TFT screen: menus, a Snake game, a terminal on the screen and HTTP over an ESP8266. The Snake, terminal and ESP8266 code are in the 2020 history; the repo was later restarted.

Illustration of the method with simulated readings: six Hall sensors on a ring, a distance circle around each, the pairwise intersections nearest the magnet's path, and their average marking the magnet and the shaft angle.

Hall-sensor absolute encoder Archive

An attempt at a cheap absolute encoder for our FRC robot. A ring of Hall sensors around a magnet, and the circle geometry to find the magnet, worked out by hand in C.
Building cross-section with four elevator shafts, the cars at their floors and passengers queued at the landings, fed by a small floor-versus-time trace of the last minute, from a small dispatch simulation.

Elevator dispatch simulator Won

A building and elevator simulator in Rust, written in a hackathon week with one teammate, with cascaded PID control for every car. Our team took 1st place at Boğaziçi AI UpForAChallenge.

Two-camera distance to targets Archive

Distance to the reflective FRC targets from two cheap cameras, without a full stereo calibration. Blobs are paired across the two frames, and distance is fitted against 1/disparity from real measurements.
