Xita Control System is an ambitious attempt to provide intrinsic security for industrial embedded devices (IIoT).

Xita produces freestanding (OS-independent) assembly code with guaranteed protection from:

• Memory Buffer Overflow
• Physical Side Channels
• Microarchitecture Data Sampling

Users can write Xita-compliant code with functional programming syntax or using a graphical interface.

While consulting in October 2019, I ported python bindings for Computational Geometry Algorithms Library (CGAL).

The Efficient RANSAC algorithm reads an arbitrary list of points in 3d space to determine the best set of 2d shapes (faces). The 2d shapes together form an interactable 3d object (mesh).

Specifically, I provided Python libraries with equivalent functions/features to CGAL's 3d shape detection library (C++).

Note: These used "Efficient RANSAC" algorithm and do not provide implementations for "Region Growing".

MouseVision combines facial recognition software (OpenCV) with voice recognition libraries (CMU Sphinx) to enable users to control their computer mouse cursor without use of their hands.

Users simply need a webcam and microphone to use this driver. MouseVision uses OpenCV to track users' eyes, triggering movement in the computer's mouse cursor.

Once active, users can issue commands through their microphone such as:

• "Left Click"
• "Right Click"

While studying chemical engineering, I verified that basic (pH) venom from Water Moccasin (Agkistrodon Piscivorus) inhibits generation of blood clotting agents in the same way that more acidic varients of Agkistrodon snakes do.

It was determined that basic Agkistrodon venom does indeed inhibit prothrombin conversion.

Although Water Moccasin venom can be localized and effectively acts as an anticoagulant, it is not currently cost efficient compared to existing alternatives.
