Independent Consultant | Embedded Vision, Robotics & AI at the Edge
I specialize in embedded vision, robotics, and AI at the edge, with over 30 years of DSP and FPGA-based embedded design experience. My career began in ASIC design and has evolved through deep learning platforms, reference designs, and accelerated inference on edge devices.
I am available for contract work on embedded AI projects and AI benchmarking.
- AI Model Acceleration and Benchmarking — Porting and accelerating models on external AI accelerators (Hailo-8, AzurEngine, Axelera, Hailo, MemryX, DeepX), and internal NPUs (AMD Vitis-AI, Qualcomm NPU)
- Computer Vision & Robot Control — Hand-controlled robotic arms and mobile robots using MediaPipe, pose estimation, and ASL recognition
- Agentic AI for Robotics — LLM-based agents integrated with ROS2 for autonomous robot control
- Deep Learning Deployment — Classification, detection, segmentation, stereo inference, and 3D object detection using Vitis-AI on AMD/Xilinx FPGAs
- Custom Dataset & Training — End-to-end model development from dataset curation to edge deployment
