Project Canine
A summer research project (NSF / Auburn University) that derived a working dog's motions from noisy sensor data using a machine learner and GUI — built around Major, a Labrador Retriever wearing a remote sensing and comms package.

Project Canine was my summer research project in 2009, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering at Auburn University. I had the chance to work with Major, a four-year-old Labrador Retriever.
Major wore a sensor and comms package that allowed him to be signalled remotely based on sensor data. I worked on a machine learner and GUI system that could accurately derive the canine’s motions from noisy sensor data. The program also trained participants in LaTeX.
