Experience

Membership Management Web Application

Created a web-based membership management app for the use of the International Federation of Journalists. It was my first solo project in web development and I learned a great deal from it.

As part of the process, I also presented the application in a seminar organized by the federation.

Video Stabilization on Facial Features

Wrote a script using the OpenCV face detection library that recognized facial features in a video stream, and output a video centered on the face of the person being recorded.

Virtual Reality Video Game

We created a virtual reality game set in space where the player controls an astronaut floating in space.

The player's hands are recorded and displayed using a gadget called LeapMotion. With this, the player could use hand gestures to navigate through 3D space.
