About
What I Build
Force-torque sensors adopted by global robotics teams. The world's first commercial focal molography instrument. Cable-driven robots. Autonomous earthmoving machinery. Eight years of shipping electro-mechanical systems under real production constraints, from architecture through manufacturing release.
Key Impact
System Integration
Multi-domain instruments combining optics, mechanics, fluidics, electronics, and firmware — including the world's first focal molography platform.
Product Realization
10+ sensor SKUs launched, two biotech instruments concept-to-market in 12 months, one startup founded — end-to-end from sketch to series.
Sim-to-Real
4× sensor accuracy improvement through FEA-to-test calibration methodologies — adopted as standard practice across an entire product line.
Rapid Execution
6 months: cable-driven robot, concept to field test. 12 months: two biosensor instruments, concept to market.
