 As part of my third-year group project, I wrote and deployed a cloud-based electric vehicle scheduling system. The target use case was for public or internally accessible electric vehicle charging spots. Leaving a car in the spot past when it has charged stops other people for using it, the idea was to allow people to book slots for spaces instead.

 [LiveScan3D](https://github.com/MarekKowalski/LiveScan3D) is a holographic teleportation or _holoportation_ platform. The app has a client-server model for streaming 3D or _volumetric_ video over the internet. It was written in 2015 by a pair of academics at the Warsaw University of Technology, [Marek Kowalski](http://home.elka.pw.edu.pl/~mkowals6/) and [Jacek Naruniec](http://home.elka.pw.edu.pl/~jnarunie/).

Both of these technologies have a bit of a learning curve, but in the last few months, I have found the pattern to allow me to expand the services that I run and how comfortable I am with how stable they are.

 As part of my computer vision and pattern recognition module, I wrote and reported on a [visual search](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_search) system using the [MSRC v2 data set](http://download.microsoft.com/download/3/3/9/339D8A24-47D7-412F-A1E8-1A415BC48A15/msrc_objcategimagedatabase_v2.zip). Visual search is essentially what Google's reverse image search does. Given a target image, the system should be able to return similar images based on its content. The dataset is divided into 20 different categories including trees, cows and faces - a good visual search system will be able to retrieve the images of the same category as the subject before the other less relevant images.
