projects

Timbre evolution

Genetic algorithms for timbre synthesis
Fourier transforms of audio samples are decomposed and stochastically recombined into uniquely textured sounds, like hybrid instruments and fat 808s.

Camera touchpad

Single camera touch detection
The human finger blanch response is used as a contact signal. With a custom-trained CNN and object tracking, we can turn any surface into a touchpad with only one camera view.

late 2010s

projects (cont.)

Here's an application of 3D printing I came up with for DIY textiles, based on ancient clamp-resist dyeing techniques.

early 2010s

bottle boat

In high school we constructed a raft from recycled bottles, and conquered the island cloistered by a toxic reservoir behind the 7-11.

late 2010s

research

Duality

Graphics and programmatic CAD
I explored reconstructing 3D models from 2D images. The nontrivial surface from the sculpture "Duality" by Charles Perry is faithfully reproduced here.

Stark effect

2D material fabrication for optoelectronics
While studying solid state physics, I worked in a lab assembling atomically thin structures. One device I helped make was used to demonstrate novel quantum states of matter.

about me

who? which alex wang?

Welcome to my personal website! My name is Alex Haochin Wang(王昊青)and I'm based in the California bay area. I am an engineer with a profession in embedded systems. My academic background is in experimental physics.

I enjoy traveling and the outdoors just as much as hacking in my garage. I'm also passionate for the arts and dabble in music.

This site is developed by myself to showcase various projects and tinker with unconventional frontends. Feel free to reach out! My resume is also available by request.
