About Me

I'm a Computer Engineering student at METU, focused on robotics, computer vision and quantum-inspired algorithms. I work on event-based vision, depth estimation, UAV autonomy and optimization of modern detection models.

I enjoy building systems that combine research and engineering: from simulations in Gazebo/Webots to model optimization with TensorRT/ONNX.

Current: Candidate Software Engineer @ MKE — Augmented Reality implementation on UGVs

Research: METU ROMER — Event-Based vision, Monocular Depth Estimation

UAV: METU ANZU UAV— Autonomy, Path Planning, Object Detection & Tracking
