Mechanical engineer · Intelligent systems · Karlsruhe, Germany
I’m Benjamin Kazenwadel, a mechanical engineer specializing in algorithms that improve machine control and efficiency. My work combines machine data, engineering models, and practical testing.
Growing up around heavy machinery sparked my interest in how machines work and how their performance can be improved. I pursued that interest through studies in mechanical engineering.
My work has since focused on developing specialized algorithms for machine control and optimization. This includes analyzing machine data, modeling machine behavior, and evaluating algorithms on real equipment.
I value the combination of mechanical engineering, software, and practical testing - bringing algorithmic ideas into operation on real machines.
Open source · Photography
Many open-source photo booth projects are more complicated than they need to be. Fotobox keeps it simple with two buttons: one to take a photo and one to print it. Easy, fast, and reliable.
