Exploring the intersections of hardware, software, and security. Here are some of the things I'm currently working on or have built.
Exploring CNC machining and galvo laser engraving projects, including generating custom depth maps for precise engraving on materials like metal and sandstone. This work combines advanced image processing (Python, Pillow, OpenCV) with practical hardware applications.
Restoring and customizing a personal golf cart with a custom epoxy primer and gloss paint finish. This project involves practical automotive painting techniques, using air guns and compressors for a high-quality finish. Plans include detailed custom vinyl wrapping and accent work, incorporating creative techniques like cut tape for precision designs.
PicoTag is a portable, open‑source hardware hacking toolkit built around the Raspberry Pi Pico. Its custom CircuitPython firmware presents a USB‑CDC command‑line interface that dynamically loads modular commands—letting you scan and control JTAG/SWD pins, sniff and inject SPI, I²C and UART traffic, drive GPIO banks and NeoPixels, measure voltages, and more. With SD‑card‑based module loading and a lightweight command framework, PicoTag streamlines low‑level debugging, protocol fuzzing, and embedded reverse‑engineering tasks on the go.
Designing "smart locations," microcontroller-based storage bins that track and identify items via integrated sensors and wireless communications. These units connect to a central inventory management system using websockets, ensuring precise inventory tracking and real-time location updates.
