People I support at OpenLab
As president of OpenLab, I support everyone who builds there, and that number keeps growing.
SHIFTKEY
The Control Layer For Modern Computing.
A modular keyboard platform pairing snap-on hardware modules with an AI companion app, built for creators, gamers, and power users.
VERSO ROBOTIC ARM
Open Hardware. Real Robotics.
An open-source 6-axis robotic arm platform that students, teachers, & enthusiasts can 3D-print and assemble for under $300.
HAPTIC DIAL ON FPGA
Real Time Haptics.
A pure-RTL motor controller, running haptic effects with hardware-pipelined FOC, generating fully-programmable detents and force feedback.
TOROIDAL PROPS
Better, Quieter, Drones.
A published acoustic analysis preprint measuring how toroidal and asymmetric propeller geometries reduce tonal noise compared to conventional blade designs.
MYLAR SOLDER STENCILS
Fast, Reliable, Stencils.
An in-house solder stencil process that hits sub-millimeter accuracy on fine-pitch SMD stencils for under $0.10 and 10 minutes of production time.
SYSTEMHUD
Live Stats at a Glance.
A display that mounts inside your PC case, showing live temperatures and load while an onboard ML model detects anomalies that signal cooling failures.
