About Me
Write a brief introduction about yourself here. Keep it technical and to the point, similar to Low-Tech Magazine's style. Focus on your technical philosophy, approach to problem-solving, or what makes you unique as a developer/professional.
This template follows a minimal, low-tech design philosophy inspired by sustainable web design principles. It's designed to be lightweight, accessible, and functional without unnecessary visual embellishments.

-
Problem set: Fourier Transform
Implementation and exploration of the Discrete Fourier Transform. Demonstrating it's effectiveness for image compression.
-
Problem set: Projective Geometry, Corner Detection, Homographies
A problem set using Harris corner detection to demonstrate projective goemetry. By detecting fixed locations on a wall and seeing the wall from different perspectives, we demonstrated transforming a simple image from one plane to another.
-
Problem set: Optical Flow & Motion Detection
A problem set using Hierarchical Lucas and Kanade for computing optical flow. Using this implementation, we estimated motion in a series of images and tried to interpolate intermediate frames.
