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

2024–present

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 robot arms from Google X, programmed KUKAs, and converted a manual mill to CNC.
