about me

Hi! I am 24 years old and currently studying technical maths in Vienna.

At the moment, I am most interested in PDEs, Numerics of PDEs and differential geometry.
The applied nature of these fields makes them a natural extension of my other hobbies: mechanical engineering, 3d printing, and electrical engineering.

Take a look at some of my favorite blogposts below or download the papers I wrote in school and at university to find out more about my interests.

I’m a full-time student, however, I am open to exiting part-time job opportunities, with my Curriculum Vitae available upon request. Please get in touch, it would be great to hear from you.

Coding Challenge #2: Maze Generation

Generating a maze in javascript

So this weeks challenge is generating a maze with javascript. But why would you do that?
In my opinion it is an easy and interesting way to get familiar with a new programming language or better at programming in general.

We'll generate the maze using the random walker from the last challenge. But if it tries to visit a point twice it will...

DIY motorized camera slider with WiFi

Building my own professional camera slider for $100!

A camera slider is a perfect tool to capture smooth video footage or a moving timelapse, but professional camera equipment can be expensive. So I decided to build my very own motorized DSLR slider from scratch. My goal was to keep the cost below $100 while delivering good enough quality for me to use the slider regularly.

Designing (Non-circular) Gears for 3d-Printing

So how do you calculate circular and non-circular gears?

I like designing my own models. However until now I always shied away when an idea of mine required the use of gears. Especially non-circular or inner ring gears. Well, anything you can't easily download from the web.
I finally found the time to take a closer look at what a gear is from a mathematical point of view and how one can be represented and constructed easily using only a compass.
