Wrote a 125 Hz C++ loop to steer two Elite CS66 arms from Quest 3 hand controllers. Demo. Extended the loop to a Franka FR3 and recorded a 10-task LeRobot dataset across both platforms, with limits on workspace and hand speed. Demo. Fine-tuned a π0.5 vision-language-action policy on those 10 tasks and worked on its inference path.

• Built object detection for a UBTech Yanshee humanoid: a custom-trained YOLOv8 model on its camera stream.
• Wrote an OpenCV pipeline for gesture control, so a person can direct the same humanoid with hand signs.
• Added NeMo voice control so the humanoid answers questions or scans QR codes after a wake word. Demo.
• Built a pick-and-sort line where a camera guides a robot arm to sort objects on a conveyor by colour, shape and type.

• Prepared a supplied 6-DOF arm’s CAD-exported URDF for ROS 2, then checked its joints in Gazebo and RViz.
• Fixed URDF mismatches that broke arm trajectories, then ran MoveIt paths on real hardware. Demo.
