Experience
Research Assistant
Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt, Germany
Sep 2024 - Present
- COHDA Embedded Device: Worked with the COHDA embedded software stack in C to optimize the deserialization of V2X messages.
- V2X Software Stack (ETSI, ROS, C++): Developed and implemented a high-level C++-based V2X stack in ROS for communication between infrastructure and vehicles, including the use of FlatBuffers (serialization) on NVIDIA Orin.
- Performance Optimization: Improved CPM communication efficiency by 10% through the implementation of the ETSI TS 103 324 standard and advanced C++ programming techniques.
- Real-time Testing: Tested CAM, CPM, and DENM V2X messages on a sensor-based test field using prototype cars.
- User Interface: Developed an OpenStreetMap-based GUI for visualizing detected objects.
