Projects - A collection of the projects i've worked on or been deeply involded with over the years

Hecate

Hecate is a fully custom long-range all electric(non solar) survey UAS. Once complete it should break the standing range record by more than 20%

Fortis

Fortis was an all electric heavy lift UAS built for the BMFA payload challenge, Fortis still holds the record for the lightest aircraft to enter the competition and still carry the full payload weight weighting only 685g with battery.

SwarmCut

SwarmCut is an opensource HotWire path planning algorithum developed as part of the masters thesis at UOM. SwarmCut uses a combination of novel thermal modeling and particle swarm optimisation to improve manufacturing accuracy.

Halcyon

Halcyon was UoM UAV's entry to the 2022 IMechE UAS challenge.

Meteosat Image reception

Results from my attempt to decode ATP signals from NOAA and Meteosat LEO weather satelites.

Highspeed Photography

Over the years I have been playing around with various high speed Photography methods with mixed success.

CAMO GAN

An attempt to use a generative advisarial network to design better camoflage patterns for any terrain or enviroment.

Boggle Engine

A computer vision driven game engine to 'cheat' at the classic board game Boggle.

X-Band SAR

A breif attempt to build an X-Band SAR, unfortuanly due to UK law it was not possible to finish but it did result in the design of an open source driver for the Stellex 9GHz YIG oscillator.
