Developing the Robot Controller
I am utilising Rust to update the robot/expierment controller, adding extended features and optimising current features.
About Me
Currently: Pushing dirt with robots!
I hold a first-class MEng Electronic Engineering degree from the University of York (where I was also awarded best MEng graduate). I previously worked in the RF industry and have come to realise that I have a passion for research and robots! I am currently in the second year of my PhD at the University of Cambridge, working alongside my supervisor Jim Hambleton to solve terraforming problems using robots!

Current Projects
The first year of the PhD is over (already!), I am currently wrapping up some loose ends and looking forwards to the next stages of the research.
Developing the terrain sensing methodology
I am currently attempting a Realsense depth camera to measure fluctuations in terrain depth. At the time of writing the camera measures points in realtime and converts them to a heightmap. However, furhter work is required to filter and build confidence in the measurements.
Previous Work
Bio-Inspired Adaption/Navigation of a Quadruped Robot
Working alongside a team of PhD researchers, I investigated the effectiveness of specific CPG parameters for locomotion in a one-of-a-kind quadruped robot! Click the image to read it! This also resulted in a conference paper, which can be read here.
