Professional video codec analysis tool

A comprehensive video quality analyzer for professional codec development. I design and implement visualizations for various decoding stages across multiple codec standards including AV1, HEVC, AVC, and AVS3. The tool helps engineers understand and debug complex compression algorithms through intuitive visual representations of prediction blocks, motion vectors, transform coefficients, and filtering operations.

Custom real-time graphics engine

A from-scratch DirectX 12 renderer with focus on modern rendering techniques and 2D/UI integration. Features include a flexible render graph architecture, PBR materials pipeline, and efficient batched 2D rendering for UI overlays. Built to deeply understand low-level GPU programming and modern graphics API design patterns.

Cross-platform graphics experiments

Experimental Vulkan-based renderer exploring modern GPU-driven rendering techniques. Implements compute-based culling, bindless resources, and async compute for parallel workload execution. Serves as a testbed for implementing techniques from GDC talks and graphics research papers.

Modular gameplay systems for Unreal Engine 5

A collection of reusable gameplay systems built in Unreal Engine 5. Includes inventory management, ability system integration, procedural animation layers, and optimized networking for multiplayer scenarios. Focused on clean architecture and Blueprint-friendly C++ interfaces.

LLM integrations for developer productivity

Exploring AI-assisted development workflows through MCP server integrations and RAG systems. Building tools that help automate repetitive tasks like merging upstream codec changes while preserving custom instrumentation code. Investigating how LLMs can enhance developer expertise in complex codebases.
