AI engineer developing motion planning at Hacettepe Robotics Lab and UAV software for TEKNOFEST teams.

Turkey

Message

At Hacettepe Robotics Lab (DREAM), I develop reinforcement-learning-based motion policies and collision-free trajectories using diffusion models, with simulation tests in ROS and Gazebo.

My project work includes embedded and command-and-control software for two TEKNOFEST UAV teams; one won the Best System Architecture award. I also integrated physics-based autopilot testing simulation for the TÜBİTAK-backed NeuroFlight Autopilot venture and developed STM32 flight-computer software for the TÜRKSAT Model Satellite Competition.
