The ever-shifting pile of thoughts and stuff. [~] I am an undergraduate student studying Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University. My primary interest lies in exploring how co-designing novel microprocessor architectures and software paradigms can enable the creation of small-scale, power-efficient, yet robust robotic systems. My current and past research has covered areas including reinforcement learning, robotic control theory, low-power electronics, and energy-harvesting systems. Read more about some of my relevant experience at the following links: - projects/robot-graph-pruning (robotic exploration, RL, transformers) - projects/safe-control-aircraft (control theory, safe RL) - projects/neuromorphic-sensing (low-power electronics, energy harvesting, neuromorphic sensing, supervised ML) Besides these academic interests, I have been an avid origami enthusiast for over ten years. I've folded hundreds of models and also designed a few of my own. I have also recently picked up bonsai. You can check out some of my creations via the tabs at the top. About this site --------------- This website is primarily meant to be a place to showcase my projects and experience, write about my interests and hobbies, and collect a few thoughts in my own little corner of the internet. The site itself is built using 'sed'regexmagic to insert plaintext / markdown- ish documents into an HTML template using <pre> tags to preserve formatting. I borrowed the idea from the Kiss Linux website, and it works quite nicely. Contact ------- You can reach me over email at zuavs.origamiy example com.![]()
