VLC / CMOS Design
[Where it all began] Serious graduate-school research: designing a photodetector chip in a CMOS process. It's this physical-layer grounding that lets me build even the strange stuff deeply.
Various Tech Contests
Top prizes across multiple tech contests.
(For speed of implementation and originality.)
From Major Tech Companies
Special and sponsor awards from major tech companies.
(For its niche technical focus and finish.)
Graduate Research
Research in visible light communication and CMOS design.
(The physical-layer knowledge behind every hack.)

"A normal stream would be boring," so I built my own web radio station from scratch with WebRTC and Python — a pointlessly low-latency system.
A sausage vending machine I'm building with a friend in Taiwan. Overloaded with IoT, aiming for the most high-tech way to serve a sausage on Earth.
My urge to look inside is running wild. Experiments running a RISC-V core on an FPGA — the joy of building a CPU yourself.
"I want to make my own chip." — a lecture series that starts from that itch.
Learn the whole stack end to end, from the inside of a chip to the board that carries it.
Everything from the inside of a chip (silicon) to the board (PCB) that carries it: a reading corner, a fundamentals course, and five hands-on courses — KiCad, PCB Automation with Code & AI, FPGA, LibreLane, and Build-Your-Own RISC-V SoC (three foundations, plus a capstone and a PCB-applied course that tie them together).
