About Matt Nolan
I'm a robotics engineer and maker passionate about building innovative solutions that bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and practical applications. Welcome to my corner of the internet where I share my projects, insights, and journey through the world of robotics and engineering.
What I Do
My work spans across multiple domains of robotics and engineering, from autonomous systems to precision manipulation. I'm particularly interested in:
- Autonomous Robotics: Developing intelligent systems that can navigate and operate in complex environments
- Robotic Manipulation: Creating precise control systems for robotic arms and end effectors
- Making & Prototyping: Building physical prototypes and exploring new fabrication techniques
- Space & Astronomy: Combining my engineering skills with a passion for space exploration
My Approach
I believe in learning by doing. Whether it's building a new robot from scratch, exploring the latest in autonomous navigation, or diving deep into the mechanics of robotic systems, I approach each project with curiosity and a commitment to understanding the fundamentals.
This blog serves as both a documentation of my projects and a place to share insights that might help other makers and engineers on their own journeys.
Beyond Engineering
When I'm not working on engineering projects, you'll find me honing my piano skills, fighting combat robots, playing chess, hiking, and spending time with friends and family.
