Projects
3D Printing
I like to 3d print functional things that aren't just intended to collect dust on some shelve. I am a fan of the FreeCAD project and all my designs are created with it. You can find my models on one of the following sites
Typewriter Printer
Another typewriter project that I made. This time I converted an old electro-mechanical typewriter to a network printer.
Arduino Typewriter
A hardware and software project to convert a vintage typewriter into a functioning USB keyboard using an Arduino and custom PCB.
Robust and Efficient Volumetric Occupancy Mapping
An algorithm for creating volumetric occupancy maps. This method was specifically designed to provide robust results when used in conjunction with noisy measurements, as they result from stereo matching.
exFAST and High-Performance Sparse Stereo Matcher
An efficient sparse stereo analysis algorithm that applies a dense consistency check, leading to accurate matching results. Matching accuracy is further improved by the new feature detector exFAST, which is based on FAST but exhibits a less clustered feature distribution.
Really Old Stuff
TeXGrapher
TeXGrapher is a free application for drawing graphs and exporting them into code for GraphTeX, a package for LaTeX which provides a collection of drawing macros. This package can be used for creating arbitrary drawings with LaTeX and provides a convenient way for specifying graphs within a LaTeX source file.
Interactive Panorama Viewer
Interactive Panorama Viewer is a cross-plattform application for viewing cylindrical panorama images and interactively navigating through a panorama image collection. Furthermore it enables you to embed sound sources in your panorama images.
Balour
A 3D multiplayer computer game / game engine, in which players battle each other in futuristic hover tanks. Unfortunately, this game never made it to a playable version. The last binary release is from 2007 and I'm not continuing any further work on it.
