Some of my most unique projects:
- One of the original programming department heads of 0 A.D., one of the leading open-source RTS engines. I led the switch to a 3D engine.
- 2D library for the VESA Video BIOS Extensions (paged "hi-res" graphics), written in X86 assembly straight from the lengthy VBE spec.
- Haptic simulator software. Simulated the bending forces applied to a carbon nanotube attached to the tip of an Atomic Force Microscope. You could literally feel these forces using a special input device (http://www.geomagic.com/en/products/phantom-premium-6dof/overview/ http://www.geomagic.com/en/products/phantom-premium-6dof/ove...).
- Made a working physical eReader. Was similar to the Kindle but with a power-hungry LED display and USB drive support (team-based senior project). We asked eInk for a free sample, but they wanted us to buy one for hundreds of dollars.
- FPGA-based graphics accelerator (in VHDL) that rendered 2D and some 3D primitives (team-based for school).
