• Calibrated advanced in-vehicle driver monitoring system to support the level-2/3 autonomous driving. Integrated and prototyped hardware components (camera, illuminators, external casing, wiring harnesses) onto the vehicle dashboard for future SFM vehicles.
• Designed and simulated analog, digital and mixed signal circuits for steering wheel buttons, gear position system, display driver and LED driver using Altium designer.
• Analyzed and resolved design related issues in timely manner and recommended improvements to existing designs.
• Designed high speed low power reliable printed circuit boards for manufacturing, and performed component and subsystem level testing including EMI and ESD testing.
• Developed design documentation and requirement specification to provided support for manufacturing,packaging and vehicle integration team. Develop testing documentation for vehicle testing and harness design team.
• Designed, developed and engineered high quality 3D CAD, rapid prototype, and PCB for the steering wheel, 17-inch automotive display, instrument cluster, and driver monitoring system for SF5 luxury electric vehicle models using Solidworks and performed DFMEA to meet the manufacturing standards.
• Designed a seating buck to support human factors analysis of the position and orientation of in-vehicle infotainment system, instrument cluster, steering wheel, and seats.
• Collaborated with Standford University to build hands-on-wheel detection sensor using capacitive fabric to calculate reaction time and transition time from other in-car activities to respond to take-over-request while the car is on the autonomous driving mode.

• Redesign standard Macintosh laryngoscope for vallecular cysts operations
• Modified blade design and introduced a passage for intubation to deliver a more anterior direct laryngoscopy view
• Designed an easily adjustable mechanism to increase epiglottis lift, providing more space for surgery
• A prototype was designed in SolidWorks, 3D printed in stainless steel and was tested in manikins to compare and document the results of new design and the standard laryngoscope
