ABOUT ME

I'm all about hacking

Hi, My name is Ben. I graduated from the University of Southern California studying Computer Engineering & Computer Science.

I am finally done with my college, but I am not afraid to share my projects so far! I have gone to 17 hackathons.

Not a day goes by when I don't think about programming and you might even say I am "a bit" obessed with it. I got my start in programming through FIRST Robotics and when I started programming as a sophomore, in high school I was fascinated by the prospect of being able to write a few lines of code and have a robot actually do something!

2010 - present

MY HACKING MOTTO

This is how I hack

Attention to Detail

I'm a bit of a perfectionist, I won't rest until something is absolutely perfect. I love what I do and I want to be able to say that I am proud of all of my work.

Pixel Perfect

I work closely with designers on a regular basis to make gorgeous user interfaces and experiences in my projects. I love working on beautiful products and I know that users will enjoy using them.

Innovation

I love doing new and exciting things and spend most of my time hacking on various side projects.

Hardware

I believe that hardwares are changing the world faster than we have ever seen before and I am excited to take part in shaping the future!

Projects

Some cool stuff that i hack on in my spare time

Project Podori Project Podori is an interactive application for the visually impaired to experience driving a car through providing the driving atmosphere.	Project Alfred Chore Assistance Robot using TurtleBot and Microsoft Kinect	HoloSketch Enriching the creative process with Augmented Reality
Pet's Palace Smart Popup Animal Shelters	Daisy's closet Automated Clothing shopping Experience	Prescribe Keep track of your prescriptions intuitively and conveniently with the Internet of Things
HoloComm Conversation Aid platform using combination of Hololens, Natural Language Processing, and IoT device	DoraX Smart Backpack that helps to explore the world by talking to AI bot in Skype Conversation.	Project Foodbank IoT Smart Refrigerator with Food Security
vend Smart Vending machine that track customer previous purchases and recommend products based on customer	4D-mon The game is a 2 player gesture-based fighting game. Two users are using two Kinects backed by a Firebase backend to read all the data. The players are attempting to use these gestures to inflict damage on one another until a player wins. When a player gets hit, the phone vibrates in their pocket to give them feedback.	Napkin IOT alarm that wakes the user by tracking their eyes
NerfLock Kinect, Intel Edison, and Nerfgun project where kinect is used to check if the user is matched with the user in the system. If the user is not matched, nerf gun fires. If the user is matched, door is open instead.	Future Cloth It is a Microsoft Kinect Hack that allows augmented reality clothes on the person. Once the person shows in front of the camera, they can change their clothes on the screen by speech without physically wearing different clothes. It was programmed using C#.	Right Hand Rule Kinect game using motion sensor and body detector
Whiteboard Coding robot arm with three servo motors that can draw and write things on the white board with user input.
