Worlds: April 2027 — counting down…

  


  
  

    
path-planner — try it

    
This is a toy version of my real project: a planner that generates time-optimized
      autonomous routes for VEX U robots using Hermite splines. Click the field to drop waypoints,
      then hit run path and watch the robot drive the spline.

    

      
      

        
        
        
      

      
The real one (Python, cubic/quintic Hermite splines, forward/backward kinematic
        passes for velocity & acceleration limits) lives at
        github.com/maxsr0/path-planner.

path-planner

        
Time-optimized autonomous routes for VEX U robots. Cubic/quintic Hermite splines with
           forward and backward kinematic passes to respect velocity and acceleration limits.

prism-robotics

        
Website for Prism Robotics, the 501(c)(3) VEX U team I co-founded — team info, technical
           portfolio, and sponsorship outreach. I also lead our fundraising ($1,500+ raised so far).

league-bot

        
A Discord bot that ran a competitive Rocket League esports community and scaled it to
           1,500+ members — brackets, stats via the Ballchasing API, and a MongoDB backend.

plant-monitor

        
A desktop app plus custom firmware — a sensor project where the hardware and the software
           had to work end to end.

about

    

      
I'm a Computer Science freshman in the University of Cincinnati's co-op program (class of 2031),
         based in Erlanger / Cincinnati, Ohio. I'm looking for a Summer 2027 software co-op.

      
I co-founded Prism Robotics, a 501(c)(3) VEX U robotics nonprofit, where I build robot
         software and the team website and lead fundraising as we work toward the VEX World Championship
         in April 2027.

      
Outside class I mentor middle school robotics teams — 35+ students and 350+ hours so far — and I'm a
         certified VEX Event Partner and Head Referee. In high school I captained my team to a Kentucky
         State Championship and the Excellence Award.
