Gratitude & Appreciation

In the collaborative spirit that defines our work, I've had the privilege of leading the integrated development of both software and hardware, which encompasses the intricacies of IoT devices and the sleek interface of our web page.

It's with a deep sense of appreciation that I extend my heartfelt thanks to Cloud Qiu and Ke Wang, whose remarkable talents in device crafting, web design, and insightful user research have been indispensable. My gratitude also flows to Hon Leung, whose expertise not only refined the front end of our web page but also seamlessly integrated it with the robust capabilities of Google Cloud Platform. This journey of creation wouldn't have reached its zenith without the collective genius of my team members, to whom I owe a debt of gratitude.

A special note of thanks goes to our sponsor, Meta, for their generous support, and to Ori Gershony, the Engineering Manager at Meta, whose guidance has been as enlightening as it has been encouraging. Together, we've turned visions into tangible realities; I am eternally grateful for that.
