I work as a Computer Vision Engineer Intern at ChromacareLabs.I’m building mobile computer-vision features for a consumer healthcare app that analyzes at-home medical test kits. My work focuses on an image-processing pipeline that automatically captures frames from a camera feed and extracts the relevant region for analysis. To make the pipeline robust across different phones I add calibration, automatic capture checks (framing, focus, motion), and illumination correction to handle ambient lighting and non-uniformity. I’m also responsible for analyzing the resulting intensity profile to determine the test results, such that the results are consistent across different phones and accurate.

I also generate and refine training data from camera captures, develop and iterate on segmentation models to locate the cassette and test window, and validate model performance across device types. I implement post-processing and quality-control logic so only good captures are analyzed, and collaborate with mobile engineers to integrate and optimize these components for iOS and Android. I’m excited to see this ship and to keep improving the product.
