Sean Rice

Assisted teaching for classes: Analytical Methods in Electrical Engineering, Advanced Embedded Systems, and Advanced Technical Writing. Prepared homework and solutions, lead discussion sections, held office hours, graded assignments.

Working on developing optimization based algorithms for trajectory generation in cluttered and uncertain environments. Worked on implementing custom code solvers for obstacle avoidance problems. Worked on developing algorithms for translating autonomous system logical specifications to create trajectories.

Developed attitude determination and control system applications with NASA’s CFS architecture Improved their spacecraft attitude dynamics simulation and the communication to connect it with ϐlight software Worked closely with team members ensuring functionality and integration of my applications in their software framework

I explored the effects of delayed re-solving in recursive optimal control frameworks to aid in computation time I conducted simulations to verify theoretical results for spacecraft problems

– Website improvements and automation – Perl coding and debugging for various projects – Developed tool to resolve chip test result calculations

Focus on signals and systems, controls and signal processing. Awarded outstanding graduating senior in electrical and computer engineering.

Focus on analysis and differential equations
