Zeynep Övgü Yaycı
@zeynepvgyayc
I build production full-stack applications and applied AI systems spanning computer vision, machine learning, and backend technologies.
What I'm looking for
At broadAngle, I develop and maintain production web applications across frontend and backend systems, contributing to feature development, debugging, deployment, and maintenance with Python, .NET, Angular, Docker, Umbraco, and SQL.
I've also built applied AI and assistive technology systems, including the SmartGlove project for visually impaired individuals, where I contributed to a Raspberry Pi-based image capture and wireless communication system and a seven-network CNN image-classification pipeline that produced audio feedback. My research in image processing has resulted in Turkish patents, an IEEE ICIP publication, and a master's thesis on multi-exposure image fusion.
