Background/Interests

Awards

Computation Structures (6.004) Design Contest
("Largest speedup in the x-y plane"):
was on a 2-person team which made a 6.004 lab kit independently mobile. The kit was equipped with 6.270 motors and sensors, which were controlled by the same circuitry and microcode which ran the competition code, and thus wall-followed its way around the room as it competed in the design contest.
