I'm Matthew, an electrical and mechanical engineering student at Sorbonne Université in Paris, focused on robotics, embedded systems, and hardware that is reliable enough to ship. At ISIR, I worked on an AI educational robot across PCB design, ESP32 and Jetson integration, ROS2/SLAM, computer vision, and the software that tied the full stack together. I like projects where the electrical design, firmware, and mechanical integration all have to work cleanly as one system.
This project is part of the autonomous underwater vehicle I’m building in Paris. An AUV, or autonomous underwater vehicle, is basically a robot submarine: a compact system that has to balance power delivery, data integrity, sealing, vibration, and electromagnetic noise in a very small space. For this payload interface board, I designed a custom PCB … Read more
I redesigned the electrical system for Sn.AI.l to turn a collection of modules into a single integrated robot. The PCB became the central power and control hub, connecting the Jetson Orin Nano, motor control, the neck servo, charging and battery management, soft shutdown, and wheel-encoder odometry. At first I prototyped the system with breadboards and … Read more
Bringing AI Education to Life with Sn.AI.l This summer I had the opportunity to intern at the Institute for Intelligent Systems and Robotics (ISIR) in Paris, France. During my internship I designed the full electrical architecture and core software systems for an AI educational robot. In this post, I’ll walk you through what the goal … Read more
I built this project to turn a compact ESP8266 board into a reliable Wi-Fi weather station that could measure temperature and humidity, publish the data online, and log it over time. It was a small embedded system, but it covered the same core ideas that matter in IoT work: sensor integration, wireless telemetry, cloud connectivity, … Read more
