Services

STM32 firmware development

HAL, motor control, PID, sensor fusion (IMU, IR, LiDAR over UART/I2C), DMA, event-driven control loops. From hobbyist projects to competition-grade systems.

Starting at $50/hr

PCB design

Custom boards from motor drivers and sensor breakouts to full robot main boards, including PCB-as-structure designs.

From $300 per simple board

Commissioned builds

End-to-end small robot or embedded device design and build. Mechanical CAD, custom electronics, firmware, fabrication, integration.

Quote only, projects from $1500

Mechanical CAD for fabrication

Inventor parts and assemblies designed for FDM 3D printing, resin printing, and steel CNC machining. Includes export-ready files (STL, STEP) and fabrication-aware design choices: warping, tolerances, ribs, fastener fits.

From $50/hr
