experiments & fun

• Sentient Sculptures
  local-first robotic sculpture prototypes: webcam observation, persistent viewer memory, creature identities, and live 3D placeholder worlds
• Geolocation / Balloon Hunt
  phone-first geolocation prototype base: live GPS, debug coordinates, real vector map geometry, balloon spawns, and camera-backed slingshot encounters
• Geolocation / Roll Up
  katamari-like geolocation prototype: dense themed city objects, GPS-based roll growth, size-gated collection, and a camera-backed roll inspection view
• CPG locomotion lab
  simple, interactive CPG (central pattern generator) experiments to understand how to build movement from oscillations
• MPC explorer
  interactive MPC (model predictive control) sandbox for experimenting with control horizons, constraints, and simple dynamics
• PPO explorer
  reinforcement learning basics: watch a square learn to reach a reward circle with PPO (clipped policy gradients + gradient descent)
• VMC explorer
  2D VMC (virtual model control) sandbox: task-space springs/dampers mapped to joint torques (arm + quadruped) and thrust/moment (drone)
• NCA explainer
  interactive neural cellular automata (NCA) demo: watch self-organizing patterns grow and regenerate after damage using WebGL 2.0 shaders
• Reaction diffusion lab
  Gray-Scott reaction diffusion sandbox with presets, PNG mask bounds, adjustable cell grids, and paintable local feed / kill fields
• HEX algorithm explorer
  interactive cellular automata on hexagonal grids: explore HEX Life, Eden Growth, Sandpile, DLA, and more emergent patterns
• Neuroevolution explorer
  interactive neuroevolution sandbox: evolve neural-network controllers with tournament selection + elitism across 3 toy tasks (arm reach, obstacle navigation, pendulum)
• Proc-gen dungeon (local)
  procedural generation dungeon experiment (in git, excluded from GitHub Pages deploy)
