Senior🎓
Top SchoolLucan De Groot is an embedded software engineer and PhD candidate at TU Delft with eight years of hands-on experience building and optimizing firmware for ARM Cortex-M and -M7 platforms. He specializes in low-energy design, sensor fusion and signal-processing algorithms, Bluetooth Low Energy, and real-time systems, and has repeatedly delivered production-ready modules for smart-home and industrial applications. His recent research focuses on running mmWave radar and machine learning on resource-constrained devices, bridging academic research and practical embedded constraints. Lucan is comfortable across C/C++ and Python toolchains, protocol buffers (NanoPB), and CI-driven development, and has a track record of improving responsiveness and power efficiency through algorithmic and low-level optimizations. Notably, he has implemented MadgwickAHRS in commercial hardware and contributed long-lived BLE libraries still used in production, demonstrating an ability to turn prototypes into durable products.
