Dr. Armin Zare Zadeh

Work as subcontractor in CNH Industrial in Burr Ridge (Chicago).

I worked remotely as a volunteer teammate for Buysycle on some software projects. My contribution includes porting some computer vision algorithms for running on Odroid C2 and Odroid XU4 platforms. The cluster computing among several Odroid C2 nodes is used to speed up the computation. https://github.com/akzare/ACL_EZSIFT

It was a great experience to work professionally on the FPGA Kit framework which utilizes DS2655 FPGA board to achieve very low latency performance. This system is used in the SCALEXIO hardware-in-the-loop simulator.

I worked mostly on Verilog code development for running on the HDR-60 video kit FPGA based platform from Lattice Semiconductor. https://github.com/akzare/HardORB

During my work at the university of Potsdam, I developed the smart camera PICSy platform which was based on the Virtex-4 FPGA from Xilinx. I worked intensively on its board stack-up design, its board bring-up, SoC design and finally offloading a real-time communication engine inside FPGA. https://github.com/akzare/HardORB

I worked remotely as a volunteer teammate for klickstreet startup company. I engaged in some interesting projects for porting the computer vision Matlab source codes to C++ to achieve speedup. https://github.com/akzare/CPP_OpenTLD
