Om
What do I do?
I am a PhD Candidate at the NTNU SmallSat Lab, specialising in high-performance onboard processing for small satellites and drones.
I actively contribute to the HYPSO-1 mission, designing FPGA accelerators that enable real-time hyperspectral data processing in orbit. My work has involved all stages of embedded development from rapid prototyping algorithms for computer vision in High-Level Synthesis, highly-efficient RTL cores to onboard software.
Knowledge:
-
Hardware design - FPGA Architecture, High-Level Synthesis (HLS), SystemVerilog, VHDL.
-
Embedded Systems - Embedded Linux (PetaLinux/Yocto), Zynq SoC/MPSoC.
-
AI and Algorithms, Onboard Machine Learning, Real-time Computer Vision, Hyperspectral Image Processing, Data Compression.
Teaching Duties:
TFE4141 / TFE4171 (Design of Digital Systems 1 & 2) from 2023-Present
Research Supervision and Mentorship:
-
Hardware acceleration for deep learning algorithms.
-
Efficient onboard compression for hyperspectral data.
-
Real-time processing pipelines for UAVs and CubeSats.
