NASA→Software Engineer Intern
I worked on Python software for a laser-based wireless power transfer proof-of-concept between satellites in orbit. I led a small team and focused mainly on two things: building a computer vision algorithm in OpenCV to track a laser point in real time, and writing IMU-based software to help stabilize the satellite's orientation. At the end of the internship, I presented our results, including ~98% laser-aiming accuracy, to over 100 NASA engineers and scientists.
