2024 - today Mind the QApp
An Application for Visualizing the Crux in Quantum Machine Learning.
2015 - today Jailhouse
The LfD improved the static partitioning Hypervisor Jailhouse and ported the originally developed for the x86 architecture to the ARM and the RISC-V architecture.
2022 - today Grinch
Grinch is an inhouse developed minimalistic operating system for educational purposes and research.
2013 - today Codeface
Analyser for software projects.

A simple maildir to public inbox (git) converter.
2017 WS2801 Linux userspace driver
Many WS2801 libraries are written in Python or are proprietary. This driver is a Linux driver, and support arbitrary GPIOs and does not depend on SPI devices.
2016 Ardupilot
Open-source software stack was developed for distributed industrial systems, demonstrated by a prototype using a multicopter.
2014 libtrevisan
Trevisan extractor. Transforms a “weakly random” distribution into an almost uniform distribution.
2005 CQPL
Compiler and runtime/simulation environment for a quantum programming language capable of handling quantum communication
