Geolocation Experiment using the Mobile GSM Cellular Network

This experiment involved acquiring CellID and signal strength information from the GSM cellular network, tracking one's position while acquiring this data, and finally presenting it nicely. It is summarised in the following pictures (full details are described in the sub-sections found top-left):

Cosmology Major Project

A system for distributed extensible particle simulations over multiple computers. Unfortunately I haven't exactly got around to distributing it. Although thanks to the generosity of Steven Foster, the many lab computers at my school are waiting. My report details the process and simulation design.

Real-time detection of commercials on television

For my undergraduate honours thesis I conducted research into the unbuffered real-time detection of commercials on television with a view to muting the volume when ads are being broadcast. The research itself dealt with examining the features required to enable robust real-time detection. I developed a sophisticated video analysis and processing framework to underpin experimentation and compilation of results.

The following screenshots show the system running live (click on one to see the full-res image):
