Laborbuch

Technische Berichte zu dem, was ich baue. Jeder Eintrag behandelt ein Projekt oder Experiment: was ich bauen wollte, den Aufbau, die Experimente, was schiefging, die Messwerte und was ich beim nächsten Mal anders machen würde.

Mobile Robotics Hackathon: sorting waste with a robot arm

A hackathon write-up: camera-to-robot calibration with AprilTags from 20 poses, grasping with ROS 2 and MoveIt, sorting objects by their height, and the computer vision part that did not make it into the demo.

Developer Island: a Dynamic Island for the Windows desktop

A native Windows status capsule built with .NET 10 and WinUI 3: a fixed-size transparent window, spring morphs, event-driven providers that read local usage logs, and an idle cost measured in milliseconds.

Wächter: an offline voice-and-vision assistant for my front door

A fully local voice-and-vision assistant running on an ordinary laptop, with a focus on perception, conversational latency, benchmarking and the engineering failures behind a sub-3-second response target.

Die Projekte, Experimente, Messwerte und Bugs sind meine. Claude hilft mir, aus meinen Notizen lesbare Artikel zu machen. Die technischen Inhalte prüfe ich vor der Veröffentlichung. KI spart mir Schreibzeit, keine Ingenieurszeit.
