Research

  • Aether Braid. Identification-Constrained Closed-Loop Navigation.

    A live-detour loop that treats the recommended route as a treatment assignment, and infers blockage only when an assigned approaching cohort exists.

    2026 · Doctoral prototype

  • Multi-Map ETA. A virtual sensor from six commercial maps.

    A 24/7 fault-tolerant pipeline collecting synchronized ETAs from Google, HERE, TomTom, MapQuest, Waze, and Apple Maps — and a disagreement index for the routes they will not agree on.

    2025–26 · Continuous collection

  • CLEAR-AI. Critical AI literacy for K–12 financial education.

    A Scaffold–Engage–Apply critique workflow, a 14-type error taxonomy, and a hybrid multi-agent pipeline that scores student critiques without breaking experimental control.

    2026 · NSF-aligned platform

  • WebXR Spatial Computing. Gesture-driven, context-aware human–AI interaction.

    A spatial computing framework centered on gesture and context, with large language models inside the environment rather than beside it.

    2025 · Research framework

  • MaayaWay Magic Mirror. A gesture-controlled agentic surface.

    A custom hardware interface on NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Mac: a gesture-controlled interactive smart mirror with agentic capabilities.

    2025 · Built system

  • Generative Lexical-Visual System. From definition to scene.

    A framework that uses large language models to translate abstract dictionary definitions into concrete, illustrative visual scene descriptions.
