A four-legged robot that walks on a policy trained in simulation and runs on a Raspberry Pi 4 driving eight bus servos.
RaiApps
A budgeting app and a climbing training tracker, both Flutter on Supabase, with LLM reports that never compute numbers or act alone.

A hand coffee grinder turned into a motorized appliance, with a Raspberry Pi, a stepper-driven burr, an auger doser and a touchscreen.
TidyNET
A diffusion model plans a tidy layout from a photo of clutter, and a robot arm rearranges the real objects to match.
Kinetic Wall Lamp
A wall-mounted lamp with no buttons: knock its pendulum arm and it steps to the next held position.
Artificial Synaptic Pruning
A Fall 2020 study of synaptic pruning in neural networks, where deleting 80–95% of the weights improved test performance.
