- Developing connected autonomous utility vehicles - Working with companies in robotics, automotive, energy and agricultural industries to identify the pain points that can be targeted with cloud computing, robotics and applied machine learning - Helping clients create a systematic machine learning workflow from research to production - Developing cloud applications for autonomous driving, robotics and IoT

At Maplesoft, I help our clients use symbolic computations for model based system analysis and design. As an example, we have created a design environment to generate and optimize code for model predictive controllers.

I was a faculty member of the Department of Electrical Engineering and a member of Control Systems and Mechatronics groups.
