hi.
i'm
shan-wei.

I'm an engineer working on the Internal Tools & Infrastructure Team at Juul Labs, where I build systems that power product research, testing, and formulation.

My passion is designing technology that feel natural. I love spending time outdoors and I strive to bring a human-centric focus to every project. Here you can check out some of the things I'm working on. Please enjoy.

Bipedal Compass-Gait Walker
Bipedal Compass-Gait Walker
A MATLAB simulation of a passive compass-gait walker on an incline, using Lagrangian/Newton–Euler dynamics and a simple impact model. This project explores how gait evolves into periodic orbits, bifurcations, and chaos as the slope parameter varies.
Autonomous Tetris Agent
Autonomous Tetris Agent
In this project, I use reinforcement learning techniques to train a computer agent to play the game of Tetris.
