Featured Projects
Minicapper image

MiniCapper

The MiniCapper is a standalone device to cap and decap vials for use in laboratory automation.
The project was progressed from initial concept through to a final version, tested in a laboratory environment.
The system was designed for manufacturability and ease of assembly, with all custom components manufactured from machined metal.

EWatch image

EWatch

The EWatch is a programmable smartwatch intended for hobbyists and developers.
The project is currently in development, with availability for pre-order.
This project predominantly involved electronics design, with a strong emphasis on low power consumption and miniaturisation.
Mechanical considerations include ergonomics, aesthetics, and machinability.

EWrapper

The EWrapper is a device designed to autonomously wrap combat sports hand wraps. The project originated from a clearly identified pain point and was progressed to market on a small scale.
The design is optimised for speed and ergonomics; aesthetics and manufacturability were not primary considerations, as the product was produced via small-scale 3D printing.

Custom Mouthguard Case

Custom mouthguard cases allow clear distinction between otherwise indistinguishable products.
The project was started with a pain point and progressed to market.

Additional Projects
Powdr feeder image

Powder Dispensor

Stackable powder feeder for accuracy dispensing microcapsules.
This project was to determine feasability of dispensing this unconventional powder repeatedly.

Bolt Pick and Place

An automated bolt pick-and-place system developed to meet a defined assembly specification.
The machine autonomously assembles two components using a Cartesian gantry and rack-and-pinion-driven Z-axis.
The design prioritises repeatability, throughput, and mechanical simplicity.

In-ear monitor image

In-Ear Vital Sign Monitor

An in-ear vital sign monitoring device developed for a master’s project.
The system integrates a custom PCB with NFC for temperature data acquisition and transmission.
The enclosure and mobile application were designed to support ergonomics, usability, and system interaction.

cansat image

Cansat Competition

CanSat competition involves designing and building a satellite type system to be launched in a rocket.
The payload incorporated multiple mechanical stages to manage ascent, descent, deployment, and landing.
The system was validated through testing and competition deployment, achieving first place among UK teams.

spruci image

Spruci

Spruci is a modular, self-irrigating green wall system.
The project was progressed from concept to functional prototype.
The project focused on modular product architecture, scalability, and early-stage validation.

astro image

Astro

Astro is a proof of concept waste transportation system for university coursework.
The project involved concept generation, CAD modelling, custom PCB, software design and a one-off prototype.

Mini ScrubMarine image

ScrubMarine

ScrubMarine is a remotely operated vehicle to combat bio-fouling on marine vessels.
I was given one day to design and 3D print miniature versions of ScrubMarine for showcasing in pitches.
