Hi, I'm building things that shouldn't have to wait.
I write software and invent infrastructure — Android apps that run AI entirely offline, and open blueprints for solar roads and green hydrogen networks. Everything is open-source.
Software
Box — Android app running four AI engines offline in one APK: chat (LiteRT + llama.cpp), image generation (stable-diffusion.cpp), speech-to-text
(whisper.cpp), and vision AI. Encrypted chat, biometric lock, hard offline mode, NPU support for Snapdragon / Google Tensor / MediaTek.
OfflineLLM — Privacy-first Android chat with a llama.cpp backend. Zero internet permissions. Import any GGUF model. Biometric lock, markdown
rendering, TTS. No cloud. No account. No data leaving the device.
Inventions
SolarRoad — Open blueprint for a solar road and energy ecosystem. Roads become solar collectors; vehicles draw power via inductive charging;
maglev cuts friction; AI manages the grid. No petrol. No road deaths. Sydney's road network alone could generate 84–137% of the city's electricity demand.
Hydrogen Highway — Open blueprint for coastal green hydrogen. Offshore wind + floating solar power seawater electrolysis; a
pipeline carries hydrogen inland; reusable HDPE/aluminium barrels handle last-mile delivery. Zero carbon. Infinite fuel. Every component exists today.
Both released under CC BY 4.0 — share, build, deploy.
Why I do this
Most AI sends your data to the cloud. Most energy plans lock in fossil fuels for another generation. I build the alternative.
I have around 50 invention concepts across energy, transport, medicine, food, climate, and society. If even a fraction are built over the next 50 years, I believe they could accelerate
human civilisation by 100–150 years and help save the planet.
How sponsorship helps
All of this is built in my own time. Sponsorship lets me develop faster, test on real hardware, and keep publishing inventions openly rather than locking them behind patents.
Every contribution — any size — directly funds the work. Thank you.
