Localizing a Differential-Drive Robot using an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF)

Autonomous Robot Navigation [E160] – Final Project The final project was a culmination of multiple labs, each requiring a two page report: Final Project Background The Kalman Filter (KF) is a filtering and prediction technique for continuous systems; however, it is only limited to linear Gaussian systems. In order for the Kalman filter to be […]

State-Space Control of an Inverted Pendulum

Junior-Year course in advanced systems engineering (feedback control ) E102 – Advanced Systems Engineering II is a junior-level course that’s part of of HMC’s engineering curriculum. The course course covers LTI system transfer functions, Laplace/Z transforms, feedback control systems, modern state space methods, stability, etc. For our final project, I conducted a feedback control simulation […]

To Infinity and Beyond

Sophomore Year experimental engineering course in model rocketry: E80 – Experimental Engineering This might very well be the most useful course I took as an undergrad… The course is focused on model rocketry. It covers multiple engineering disciplines from instrumentation/measurement techniques to thrust & flight modeling. All in all, I learned how to be effectively […]
