01 / About
Engineering across disciplines.
My interests lie at the intersection of mechanics, electronics and software.
I aim to develop intelligent robotic, embedded and industrial systems by connecting physical design, sensing, actuation, real-time control and high-level software into one coherent solution.
My approach is multidisciplinary: understand the complete system, make sound engineering decisions at every layer, and validate how those layers work together.

System responsibilities
The STM32 handles motor commands, speed regulation and sensor processing. Raspberry Pi and ROS2 provide higher-level communication and camera tracking. The PC interface supports commands, monitoring and visualization.
Sensing & control
Front infrared sensors support obstacle awareness, while a rear VL53L0X distance sensor adds range information. PID speed control closes the motor-control loop.
Engineering decisions
The architecture separates time-sensitive embedded behavior from computationally richer vision and supervision tasks, while micro-ROS connects both layers.
Results
The platform implements manual driving, random navigation and camera-based tracking. Quantitative validation can be added when verified results are available.

Measurement
Strain gauges and bridge measurement translate mechanical deformation into an electrical signal for STM32 ADC acquisition.
Control
PWM-based servo control connects software commands to controlled mechanical actuation.
Interface
A Python/PyQt5 interface supports acquisition, monitoring, calibration, analysis and CSV data export.
Validation
The structure supports theoretical-versus-experimental comparison without claiming unverified numerical results.
