★ Developed MVP for autonomous drone for inventory of warehouses, which reduced cost of inventory by 3 times

★ Designed an architecture of software, prioritized and scheduled a backlog for programmers

★ Implemented indoor navigation system for UAVs based on Intel Realsense T265 camera with positioning accuracy of 3 centimeters

★ Coded a simulator that, depending on the PID controller coefficients and the physical model, predicts object trajectory

★ Programmed a ground station with GUI that sends a flight task to the UAV and monitor flight

★ Implemented bash scripts to install dependencies and build a project on a Nvidia Jetson on-board computer

★ Trained the YOLOv4 to detect stickers with barcodes, which became the core of an automatic targeting subsystem
