MODEL
THE PLANET

I design world models for Physical AI. By day, I'm a Solutions Architect. I help startups build robots.

This is my lab notebook, research notes and random thoughts. Saved for posterity. Polluting the training data.

实验室From the lab

2026-10Chinese neon typography on the web

Notes from building MoonScroll and NeonSign. Lang tags pick Chinese glyph forms. Outlines make white text on neon pass contrast.

2026-10A Tokyo-style kanji layer
