Featured Projects
Autonomous Traffic Telemetry Node
May 2025Engineered an autonomous, edge-computing vision system to digitize real-world intersection traffic for civil engineering analysis. Deployed a self-contained Raspberry Pi and CCTV unit powered directly by municipal traffic poles. Developed a Python service utilizing OpenCV for 2D map projection and YOLOv11x for frame-by-frame vehicle tracking. The localized pipeline compiled vehicle trajectories into daily XML datasets for SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility), accessible entirely off-grid via a custom Flask-hosted hotspot interface.

Stesis: World Navigation Hat: Wearable AIoT Aid
April 2026Architected an edge-fog-cloud AIoT ecosystem embedded in a "smart hat" to consolidate assistive technologies for the visually impaired. Designed to solve market fragmentation, the system acts as an extensible platform for customized sensory substitution. The distributed architecture executes three core functions: real-time stereo-vision depth mapping translated to spatial audio pings (Edge), zero-visual gesture control (AI), and mobile-bridged GPS telemetry for caregivers (Cloud/IoT). Powered by a Raspberry Pi 4, the codebase is strictly segmented across Python (Edge/OpenCVhttps://bucket.jasouza.comPipe), Kotlin (Fog/Mobile), and Node.js (Cloud).

January 2025Engineered a custom Electron.js desktop browser designed to autonomously scrape and aggregate web data in real-time. Features a proprietary "super tab" architecture that organizes live-scraped chat structures—including user profiles, engagement metrics, and nested thread hierarchies—into a unified interface. The core feature is a contextual language learning engine that performs dynamic syntactic analysis, applying color-coded indicators to distinct parts of speech (verbs, nouns, adjectives) while preserving the original foreign text. Implemented an interactive hover-state overlay that provides localized word definitions alongside full-sentence contextual translations, bridging the gap between raw web data and active linguistic comprehension.

May 2023Engineered "Eva," a modular autonomous agent framework designed to decouple cognitive processing from environmental interaction. The system architecture divides the agent into three core layers: a "Brain" for LLM integration (OpenAI API, local Ollama models), a "Body" for headless web automation and GUI interaction (PyAutoGUI, PuppeteerJS), and an "Environment" for localized file management and autonomous script execution. Demonstrated via a Facebook Messenger deployment, the agent functions as a synthetic user capable of conversational reasoning, multi-modal generation, expense tracking, and dynamic task automation utilizing both Python and Node.js runtimes.

October 2024Served as Lead Programmer for "Noble City," a tycoon-style economic management simulator developed for the Calle Real: Indie Game Showdown. Engineered a proprietary, zero-dependency game engine from scratch using TypeScript, compiling down to highly optimized Vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to ensure ubiquitous, cross-device playability natively in the browser. The game features complex state management and economic algorithms governing dynamic supply-and-demand loops, strategic investment pathways, and bankruptcy conditions, challenging players to reach a 100,000 PHP net worth benchmark aligned with the local Dinagyang Festival.

Aswang King: Arcade Platformer
April 2024Engineered a retro-style, 2D arcade platformer utilizing an early prototype of a proprietary TypeScript-based game engine. Compiled entirely into dependency-free Vanilla HTML, CSS, and JS, the project was developed under strict game jam constraints. The core mechanics pay homage to classic era platformers, featuring a distinct three-level progression system infused with Philippine folklore, culminating in a mechanical boss encounter with the titular 'Aswang King'.

Galactic Strike: Distributed Arcade Arena
May 2023Engineered a real-time multiplayer arcade game utilizing Node.js and WebSockets to establish a distributed interface architecture. The system completely decouples the rendering engine from the control inputs: a central host machine renders the dynamic combat arena, while players' smartphones connect seamlessly as low-latency, browser-based dual-joystick controllers. The backend handles strict state synchronization across all clients, managing asteroid collision physics, progressive enemy AI (ranging from localized suppression to predictive tracking), and live player leaderboards. Serves as a zero-installation, massively multiplayer reimagining of the classic Asteroids paradigm.

January 2025Served as Team Leader and Lead Developer to architect the official Google Developer Student Club (GDSC) platform for the University of San Agustin. Engineered a comprehensive full-stack web application utilizing Nuxt.js, Vue, and TypeScript, integrated seamlessly with a Firebase/Firestore backend via Vuefire. The platform acts as the centralized operational hub for the university chapter, featuring dynamic CMS capabilities to showcase student-led projects, coordinate event schedules, and manage active membership registries. The interface is highly optimized and responsive, styled utilizing a hybrid of TailwindCSS and Vuetify.

OBBO iManage: Quarry Management System
April 2026Developed a comprehensive quarry and warehouse management platform designed to streamline inventory and order pipelines. The system enables administrators and clients to efficiently request, track, and process jumbo and sling bag orders. Features include a real-time operational dashboard with stock threshold alerts, KYC verification workflows, a live security alert feed, and automated email notifications with OTP authentication. The architecture relies on Apache, PHP, and MySQL to securely host, process, and store relational data.(Demo Login — User: admin | Pass: admin)

Lasortech RMA System
July 2025Co-developed a secure, internal Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) and order management system for Lasortech, a hardware repair store in Jaro, Iloilo. Restricted to staff use, the platform tracks customers, employees, inventory, and repair tickets. Engineered a granular state-management pipeline allowing orders to transition through statuses (waiting, processing, paid, incomplete) while logging timestamps, authorizing personnel, and contextual descriptions. As the lead for frontend architecture and backend protocols, I utilized TypeScript and SASS for a scalable UI, interfacing with a PHP/MySQL backend powered by Apache and Composer for email OTP functionality.
