Team leader of a group of 6 students that created a 3D render engine based on a scene graph using C++ and OpenGL
The aim of this project was to create a new render engine for the game of the teacher. As we were not allowed to use libraries other than CML, STL and Boost, we built from scratch the 3D render engine using C++ and OpenGL.
As the team leader of the group of 6 students, I chose to divide the work into 3 parts: creation of independant libraries fully tested (a Scene Graph, a viewer and a 3DS file importer), creation of the render engine that processed the video game datas and updated accordingly the scene graph and creation of new 3D models using 3DS Max.
It was one of the most rewarding project as it involved a lot of skills in a short amount of time:- Managing the project, assigning tasks while learning OpenGL and mathematics for 3D.
- Not reinventing the wheel by learning from well-known solutions (Inspired from lib3ds that we were not allowed to use and from Open Scene Graph but largely simplified).
- Conforming to coding conventions and advanced usage of C++.
- Creating an error-proof engine using a Logger System, an OpenGL extension selector and advanced C++ libraries (Configurable Math Library, STL and Boost).
- Using advanced graphics features whereas it was the first time we used OpenGL: View Frustum Culling, Vertex Buffer Objects and shader support.
- Creating a collection of reusable libraries (an independant 3DS importer, an independent Scene Graph and Viewer enabling much more eccentricity than the simple game we were given).
Note: We were the only group of student that chose this project.

12/2010 - 03/2011
Developed a stereovision module for a robot
The aim of this project was to develop a program that enables a robot to explore an unknown environment. We were a group of 6 people and we used C++ and OpenCV.
I was in charge of investigating and implementing a technique enabling the robot to detect and avoid the obstacles. I chose to use the stereovision.
Visual surveillance for a Railway Level Crossing
The aim of this project was to create a software to monitor automatically a Railway Level Crossing: detect if traffic is entering or leaving the Railway Level Crossing, detect if there is traffic on the Railway Level Crossing, detect if there is rail traffic and detect if the barrier is lowered. I develop this project using C++ and OpenCV.
I applied Image Processing techniques: morphological operations - Canny edge detector - HSV color space - Hough Transform.
Developed a steganography program
The aim of this project was to develop a program using C++ that enables to hide any file in an image. I used the library OpenCV.
