Hey! My name is Owen Leather. I am a Mechatronics Engineering student at the University of Waterloo. Here's a bit about me:
🚚 Perception intern @ Kodiak working on perception software for autonomous semi-trucks!
📝 Student Researcher @ University of Waterloo, where I'm exploring novel methods for robots to understand dynamic environments with neural rendering.
🛰️ Previous intern @ iMETALX Space Systems where I developed computer vision software autonomous spacecraft.
🌱 I love to explore new topics through projects, and have a variety of interests and experiences including but not limited to machine learning, robot controls, and computer graphics.
