The Simulation Bridge

C++17 · ESP32 · UDP / UART

A bridge between simulated vehicle state and ESP32 firmware. It streams data over UDP and UART using compact packets with sequence counters, timestamps, and CRC-32 integrity checks.

Hi.

I'm a twenty-year-old computer engineer from Vorarlberg, Austria, based in Tampa Bay, Florida.

There is something deeply satisfying about bridging the gap between software and the physical world. I like exploring how things work under the hood — from sensor data and firmware loops to the boards those systems run on.
