Software I write and publish as Pixelspark
Back in 2011 our research consultancy team had collected quite a lot of interesting data for one of our clients. While previously we would put all of it in a report, print it out, and call it a day, one of my colleagues at the time proposed to make the …
Another one of my “lockdown projects” involves a 7.5 inch e-Paper display from Waveshare. Instead of your ordinary computer display, which bombards your eyes with light, e-Paper displays are more similar to paper. By making a pixel more or less reflective (using a technique known as ‘E-ink’), an e-Paper display …
Digital RGB LED strips are strips of LED lights that can be controlled individually, which makes them really versatile for use in e.g. home automation. Throughout my home there are several strips, each adapting their hue to the current time of day and showing all sorts of information, such as …
For Dialogic, I developed a user friendly environment for machine learning. The tools, which are available online through diasli.de, allow users to quickly set up image classifiers, text classifiers as well as generic machine learning models using custom features and outputs. Supported features: Image classification: transfer learn image classifiers using …
Over the holidays I wrote a tiny ray tracer in Rust. A ray tracer is a program that renders a 3D image by simulating the way light travels between light sources and a camera. Advanced versions of ray tracing techniques are used to render 3D movies such as the famous …
For Dialogic, I developed an interactive environment for the creation of web-based infographics and other interactive experiences right in the browser. The environment is used in the Dialogic Platform for providing rich dashboard experiences to customers.
A blockchain allows different entities share a database without having to entrust that database to a single entity. Catena provides an SQL database on top of a blockchain, providing all the benefits of blockchains (resiliency, distributed operation, openness) while providing a familiar interface to its users.

The Internet of Things promises to connect virtually all devices and make sensor data ubiquitously available. Instead of storing all this data in a central location, you can use a peer-to-peer network to store sensor data. Using a peer-to-peer network has several advantages. First of all, the infrastructure is ‘free’ (although in …
RethinkDB is the first open-source, scalable JSON database built from the ground up for the realtime web. Rethink.swift is a work-in-progress framework that allows interfacing with RethinkDB from the Swift programming language. Connecting and querying RethinkDB from Swift is straightforward and is frictionless because of all the syntactic sugar Swift provides …
