OpenDR: Open Source Diabetic Retinopathy Screening
As part of my Master’s thesis work, I created an organization dedicated to making AI to improve eye health. We built an open source API for Diabetic Retinopathy Grading, using the latest in deep learning and scalable web technologies to deliver an open platform that can automatically grade fundus images for DR severity.

Visual Debugger for Memory Networks
Deep learning architectures have diversified greatly in the last few years and architectures have only become more complex. I developed a javascript library, DeepVizJS, that is useful for debugging complex architectures.

eyeSelfie: Self Directed Eye Alignment Using Reciprocal Eye Box Imaging
Engineered light field patterns enabling self alignment to an imaging system that captures an image of the back of the eye. Images of the retina can be used to track health status over time or make screening more accessible at scale.

SCOOBI: Speckle COntrast Optical Blood-flow Imaging
Low cost hardware enable video rate visualization of skin surface blood perfusion and arterial blood-flow. A laser pointer, smart phone, and processing code is all that’s required in order to see perfusion caused by blood movement beneath the skin.

DroidCopter
An Android application combines sensor information and control input from an HTML5 web interface to fly around a toy helicopter. DroidCopter is a semi-autonomous drone controllable over a wireless data connection, and provides a platform to enable video streaming on a cheap and lightweight airborne vehicle.
Domobi: Domestic Mobility for Cacti
Domobi is a robot I built based on the Willow Garage Turtlebot. The goal was to provide a mobile platform for a houseplant, specifically, my cactus. Domobi has a RGBD sensor and uses the turlebot ROS navigation stack to build a map using SLAM and planning motor actions to navigate my apartment.

Phonograph
Nonlinear music composition and playback. Compositions are graphical models, enumerating possible transition states so every play is a different experience. Compose in blocks and connect the pieces together generating potentially infinite permutations of your composition!

Bad Particle
‘It’s been one hundred years since the last communication from super-earth Gliese 581 e. The space probe sent by the International Consortium of Extra-Solar Development has long been suspected lost, until it mysteriously arrives in the backyard of some farmers in New Canada. Sentient.’
