“We’ve always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible.” - Interstellar 🚀

I’ve kept practising what I’ve learned so far with and I love how these photos turn out to be, after putting my shooting and editing skills to the test. Nonetheless, the journey is long and I still have much to learn!

Thank you and farewell BT.
After 5 years in the research role, I've decided to move onto a new exciting challenge. I have had the chance to work with brilliant colleagues, learn a lot of new things, and have fun along the way! A big thank you to everyone I have worked with me and those that have provided me with great opportunities.

I'm feeling very proud to announce that both of my VR projects have been shortlisted for an E&T Innovation Award for the Cyber Security category.
Good luck for all the nominees and looking forward for the ceremony.

My first patent was granted and it's public for everyone to see.

In this invention, we propose a system that grants or prevents user access to a specific resource based on the user’s physiological and/or behavioural profile on XR devices.

Fantastic night with a room full of inspiring people. Hearing how everyone kept the country connected during the pandemic was impressive.
Huge congratulations to this year's winners, at The ITP Awards in London.

It was an excellent experience to be part of the Competition organised by the Institution of Engineering and Technology ( ). I was able to present my idea on how can change and improve the way we work from home and suprised for winning the Stage 1 award of the competition.

Not only allowed me to present my ideas and train my pitch, but it also allow me to connect with other people and learn from other topics being presented.

Even though I wasn't able to progress to the final stages of the competition, it was a superb way to improve my presentation skills and connect with others.

If someone has an engineering idea to share, I recommend applying for next year event, because I definitely will be there again 😁

Did you had a chance to read the work on how can accelerometer data be exploited, when someone is in ? With initial experimentation, we found out specific actionscan be identified through visual analysis.

Immersive training done right!
An excelent example where can unambiguously teach a person how to do sign language. 👏📣
This can later be used for gesture detection and be applied for correctly mapping real actions in VR, making games/experiences feel more and more realistic.

Intriguing little new wearable. It analyses your brain activity and translates into real-world actions, allowing you to control a wide range of digital objects with your mind in real-time. Would like to give it a try.

NextMind NextMind is developing a groundbreaking, noninvasive, AI-based brain-computer interface geared to the mass market.

At some point, I need to play with the system of headset. These techniques may change the way we interact with the world. In my view, the big challenge here is how we can give to the right haptic feedback for the user actions. http://ow.ly/ZRsO30rjR1k
