Me with Marvin

Brian Mayton's Portfolio

Welcome to my web portfolio. This site contains a collection of my research, art, and projects.

There are two ways to navigate the information here. You may choose from the index of links below, or follow the guided tour through a few selected projects by using the "next" and "previous" links at the bottoms of the pages. (Note that the guided tour is not exhaustive.)

I'm still working on documenting more of my works here. More of the links below will become active over the next few weeks.

Research

I am currently a research assistant for the Personal Robotics project at Intel Labs Seattle. My focus is on manipulation in the context of mobile robotics. Most of my work thus far has been done with a robotic manipulator that I fitted with custom electric field sensors that I designed, which enable it to detect certain types of objects before it touches them. More recently, I have begun working on extending the system to use a 3D camera that provides both color and depth information.

Teaching

I was a TA for the Software for Embedded Systems course for three quarters. I developed lab assignments and custom hardware for the class, and assisted students in the lab. I received an honorable mention for the Bandes Memorial Award for Excellence in Teaching for my work.

Audio Projects

One of my hobbies is building and listening to high-end headphone audio gear. The following are various components, designed by others and shared online with the DIY audio community, that I have built.
