Real-time systems.
Software, electronics, signal.
I build low-latency systems that operate on real-world signals — audio, sensors and telemetry. From offshore engineering to on-device DSP and applied AI.
Engineer
across the stack.
I'm an Electro-Technical Officer and software engineer with hands-on experience in offshore systems, real-time diagnostics and low-latency audio processing.
ForgeLabs Systems is focused on building real-time systems that combine software, electronics and signal processing. The work centers on performance, low latency and reliability under real-world conditions — not lab benchmarks.
My background in electronics enables a full-stack engineering approach: PCB design (digital and RF), diagnostics and repair, hardware/software integration, prototyping and system troubleshooting.
My 3D printing experience goes back over 15 years — starting with early Ultimaker machines and evolving into modern Bambu Lab production workflows for fast prototyping and custom hardware.
Current direction: AI applied to real-world signals — audio, sensors and telemetry — running on-device, not in the cloud.
Shipped systems.
Real apps on Google Play. Real-time DSP. No cloud, no compromises on latency.
EchoFlow DAF
Real-time speech feedback system with ultra-low latency audio and adaptive delay control. Designed for vocal training, stuttering therapy and feedback experiments.
VocalFX
Mobile real-time voice processing engine with custom DSP chain — AGC, noise reduction and effects. Built for live vocal manipulation with no cloud dependency.
HearYourself
Low-latency microphone monitoring with real-time voice effects — drive, saturation, EQ, gain up to 400%. For singers, podcasters and anyone needing instant vocal feedback through wired headphones.
BackTrack
Mark a point, navigate back. GPS, compass, route tracking — fully offline. No accounts, no analytics, no map downloads. Built for hikers, hunters and anyone who needs to find their way back without signal.
What I build with.
Core technical capabilities — what I actually use to ship systems.
Real-time systems
Low-latency pipelines, deterministic processing, real-world constraints.
Audio / DSP
Oboe, AGC, NR, EQ, multi-stage chains. Sub-10ms end-to-end.
Android (Kotlin, Compose)
Native apps focused on performance, not framework noise.
Embedded & sensors
IMU, GPS, sensor fusion, hardware integration.
MQTT / telemetry
Industrial messaging, distributed sensor networks.
Electronics & PCB
Diagnostics, repair, SMD work, prototyping.
PLC / automation
Industrial control systems, building automation.
Applied AI
On-device ML, simulation, signal-driven decision systems.
Where this is going.
The next generation of intelligent systems will run on the edge, not in the cloud.
Real-world signals are messy, noisy and time-critical. ForgeLabs is focused on the systems that handle them — locally, deterministically, in real time.
AI-driven real-time systems
Models that operate on live signals — audio, sensors, telemetry — under real-time constraints.
Audio-based intelligence
Tiny on-device models for detection, classification and event response in audio streams.
Sensor fusion & detection
Combining IMU, GPS and acoustic data for situational awareness and event detection (e.g. drones).
On-device processing
No cloud dependency. Full pipeline runs locally for privacy, latency and reliability.
