[EN] Features / Work Completed / Responsibilities

• [EN] Created 2D picking mechanism in volumetric viewer
• [EN] Implemented scale axis with dynamic base unit display based on zoom level
• [EN] Displayed color map legend in view
• [EN] Built distance measurement tool between two points in 2D view
• [EN] Developed angle measurement between vectors in 2D view
• [EN] Designed and implemented custom UI system for OpenInventor (no existing solution)

[EN] Highlights

[EN] Most proud of the custom OpenInventor UI system—OpenInventor had no native UI framework, so designed and shipped a complete solution that scientists could use intuitively. Measurements (distance/angle) proved immediately valuable for research workflows. Iterating with domain experts taught me to prioritize usability over feature breadth.

[EN] What I Learned / Personal Conclusion

[EN] Learned importance of working closely with end users—what seems obvious to engineers often confuses scientists. Protobuf serialization and binary protocol handling deepened systems thinking. Frontend/backend balance reminded me that full-stack work requires context switching but also prevents siloed thinking.
