Projects
-
Robotics · Autonomydvision
A drone simulation and autonomy platform. A vision-driven controller detects obstacles, builds a local occupancy map and plans routes from the live camera feed, with every module talking over shared memory and a MAVLink-shaped command protocol.

3D Vision · ReconstructionGSplat
Capture-to-model 3D reconstruction. An ARCore Android app records posed camera frames, and a self-hosted GPU server turns each capture into a cleaned, published Gaussian splat model with no operator in the loop.
View on GitHub - Machine Vision · IP Cameras
wlonvif
A modern C++20 library for discovering, inspecting and controlling ONVIF IP cameras: network discovery, streams and snapshots, PTZ with safety limits and click-to-center, and event monitoring, plus a virtual camera for hardware-free testing.

Real-Time Systemslibmembus
A C++20 shared-memory data bus for moving video, audio and commands between processes with no broker. Lock-free ring buffers move 1080p frames at over 20 GiB/s, and Python bindings bring it to vision and ML pipelines.
View on GitHub - Embedded · C++20
Winglib2
Write the app in JavaScript, drop into C++ for speed, and ship one self-contained executable. A C++20 and QuickJS runtime built to cross-compile to small targets, with modules for HTTP, shared memory, FFmpeg and WebRTC. The successor to Winglib, started in 2010.

AI Tooling · MCPAIBroker
Gives AI coding agents controlled access to servers over MCP: one token per client, policy-checked tools for WordPress, PostgreSQL, SSH and browsers, and a full audit trail. Credentials never leave the broker.

Software Archaeology
A dig through ancient technology: apps I've built over the last 20 years or so. They're probably no longer worth using, but they're preserved here for posterity.

Articles
Five technical articles from the CodeProject days, on C++ delegates, cross-language data, script compilers, tiny graphics libraries and HTML5 front ends. CodeProject has closed, so they've been rescued from the Internet Archive.
