Exploring the Potential of AI and Computer Vision!  

Biography

Hello world, I am Ian. I am a Telecommunications engineer specialized in Computer Vision.

I am currently working at CoatingAI AG, a startup that aims to leverage the power of artificial intelligence to automate coating processes and boost efficiency. My main role includes developing software tools for computer vision based solutions, both as standalone applications and packages of the company's full software pipeline.

Lately, I have been helping with the development of a web application for the company's current flagship product, the Flightpath.

Whether it is for work or for fun, I love to explore new technologies and learn new skills. From data science to web development, I am always looking for new challenges to tackle. Currently, paying attention to the latest trends in AI, exploring the potential of these tools and how to apply them to real world problems. I guess it's all about writing the right prompt!
