A personal engineering portfolio with interactive demos and project notes on running small neural networks and planners on constrained hardware.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-02 issue.
For
FPGA and embedded-ML developers
Worth noticing
The pendulum demo shows candidate torque plans and notes that five-step lookahead cannot swing it up from hanging.

Field notes

The digit demo offers either freehand input or a real MNIST test image, then exposes prediction scores and a clock-cycle strip. The pendulum planner lets visitors vary the number of plans and lookahead steps; its explanation notes that five steps are enough to balance an upright pendulum but not to swing it up from hanging. Project notes also describe a breadboard resistor-network neuron, with its op-amp stage still unbuilt.
