Simon Eberhart

I study engineering at Olin College. Most of my time goes into robot mechanisms, PCBs, and the Baja car. Before college I worked in robotics and machined aerospace parts for SpaceX, NASA, and GE.

Projects

since 2024

A six-axis arm driven by one motor and a set of clutches. Now working toward interchangeable robotic hands.

2026

Measuring fuel level from tank vibration using two accelerometers, differential sensing, and an FFT.

2025

An Arduino-controlled filament winder using a Hall sensor to correct filament diameter. 150+ downloads.

2025

Built a bronze foundry in my backyard. Used it to cast cityscapes captured from Google Maps.

2022–2025

Nearest-neighbor forecasts from intraday price and volume data. Traded live for three months on a 20-computer cluster I built: +18.11% net of fees. Trading log, code

Experience

2025–2026

Machining and metrology on aerospace parts for Starlink, Artemis, jet engines, and naval turbines.

since 2026

Designed the fuel-sensing electronics and helped assemble Olin's Baja car.

since 2025

Founder. Robotics company turning my research into products. Four provisional patents.

summer 2024

Reverse engineered six-axis robot arms from Google X, programmed KUKAs, and converted a manual mill to CNC.
