Projects

Featured Embedded, Hardware & Software Systems

An all-in-one embedded hardware companion built on the ESP32-S3 microcontroller, featuring an ST7735 color display, analog joystick navigation, and a multi-mode firmware ecosystem supporting 2.4 GHz RF scanning, Wi-Fi auditing, RSSI Foxhunting, and native USB HID automation.

A specialized hardware-security framework designed to detect, monitor, and mitigate unauthorized Human Interface Device (HID) keystroke injection attacks by evaluating rapid micro-timings and aberrant input patterns in real time.

A zero-install, browser-based hardware flashing utility utilizing the Web Serial API for secure firmware uploads and binary protections across microcontrollers without requiring native toolchain configurations.

An experimental hardware platform designed for wireless security testing, perimeter isolation, and RF resilience auditing across 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth spectrums.

A responsive, two-wheel differential drive robotics platform engineered around the ATmega328P architecture with hardware-level PWM frequency calibration (TCCR0B 7.8 kHz) for high-precision path tracking.

A responsive, modern web platform designed for a dining establishment focusing on performance, high-contrast visual design, fluid menu interactions, and reservation workflows.
