Arduino Quadcopter
Followed Joop Brokking tutorial and created my first flying project using an Arduino, a gyroscope, a receiver, a transmitter, four ESCs, four motors, a 3S Li-Po battery. The first project where I used soldering.
Bringing Ideas to Life
Through Technology
I am an engineer with expertise in embedded systems, drone technology, and artificial intelligence. I hold a bachelor's degree in Automation from the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca and am currently pursuing a Master's in Applied Computational Intelligence at Babeș-Bolyai University. My interdisciplinary background in electrical engineering, software development, and AI enables me to craft integrated solutions that connect hardware and software seamlessly. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to develop innovative solutions that address real-world challenges, particularly in the fields of AI and drone technology.
Projects
Smart Thermostat
ESP8266 thermostat for controlling temperature through internet, using a real-time database from Firebase.
Hexacopter
Uses a Pixhawk 2.4.8 flight controller, based on a STM32. By integrating an automatically generated pre-defined flight mission input, this prototype successfully demonstrates autonomous flight capabilities.
PLC Reader with DB
A Windows Forms application designed to establish a connection with a PLC, enabling the user to select specific memory locations, and automatically store the extracted data in a local database at user-defined time intervals. Additionally, the application enables the generation of data outputs within specified time ranges in PDF or CSV formats for enhanced reporting and analysis.
ITEC 2024 Maze Solver and Mapper
Our team designed and built a robot equipped with ultrasonic sensors and a STM32, utilizing Bluetooth for communication. The project involved programming the robot to navigate and map complex mazes effectively. Our practical and efficient approach led to our team winning first place in the competition.
6-DOF Robotic Arm
Built a 6-DOF robotic arm from a DIY kit won at ITEC 2024. The project focused on assembling the mechanical parts, wiring servo motors, and programming basic movements using an Arduino. While not overly complex, it provided hands-on experience with robotic arm mechanics and basic control principles.
STM32 Flight Controller
Designed and built a custom flight controller, starting with the electrical schematics, followed by PCB design and soldering. Combined the hardware with firmware development to achieve stable flight and precise control. This project was a great learning experience in circuit design and embedded systems.
Analog Devices Internship Project
Developed an accelerometer system using USB-C, a Linear Voltage Regulator, an ADXL Accelerometer, Differential Operational Amplifiers, an AD5592R ADC, and FPGA connectors. Designed the circuit schematic, optimized PCB layout, soldered components, developed a custom Linux driver for SPI communication, and created applications in C and Python for data retrieval and visualization.
