One day, I want to honestly say, "I made it."

I am Supavit Siriwan, an Embedded Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience specializing in firmware development, V2X communication, and real-time operating systems. Currently, I am expanding my expertise in autonomous systems to contribute to next-generation mobility solutions.

Education

Exchange research student, Tokyo Institute of Technology

September 2019 - November 2019
While I was studying for my master’s degree. I got a scholarship to conduct research at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. My research is about the Development of Adaptive Cruise Control using the Reinforcement Learning Method. After 96 million iterations of training, the agent car can follow the lead car for 220 meters.

Railway system non-degree, Mahidol university

April 2019 - May 2019
While I was studying for my master’s degree. I also enrolled in a railway system non-degree course. This course is about railway signaling, development process and track construction.

M.Eng., Information and Communication Technology for Embedded Systems, Kasetsart University

2018 - Present
I am working on my thesis. It is about making an autonomous vehicle to perform an overtaking on a single-carriageway road. I am trying to use the inverse reinforcement learning method to imitate human behavior.

B.Eng., Electrical Engineering, Kasetsart University

2010 - 2014
My senior project is the Development and Control of a self-balancing Tube-Riding Robot. The robot balancing is controlled by PID controller. Which use angle and angular velocity as feedback from IMU.

Extra-curricular Activities

SKUBA Robot Team

During undergrad, I joined the team as an electrical engineer. I am taking the responsibility to maintain the robot. Furthermore, I developed an algorithm for technical challenges, which is a sub-category award. And got 1st Place in Pass and Intercepted Challenge from World RoboCup 2012 in Mexico City, Mexico. [SKUBA RoboCup SSL] 

Thanyaburi Robot Club

During high school, I lead the robot team to pass the national qualification round to get an opportunity to participate in World Robot Olympiad 2009 in Yokohama, Japan.
