Applications on Tarterware
Deployed on AWS
Roadrunner View
A real-time, distributed vehicle simulation you can watch live in the browser. A Java/Spring Boot engine drives vehicles along routes generated by the Mapbox Directions API and publishes their telemetry through Apache Kafka, where it feeds a fast state store for live positions and historical playback. The React + TypeScript front end renders the vehicles on an interactive 2D/3D Mapbox GL map, with a first-person driver's view and simulation controls. The full stack runs on Kubernetes in AWS, provisioned with Terraform.
Road Risk Playground
A full-stack web application that estimates the relative accident risk for any driving route. Built with React, TypeScript, and Mapbox GL on the front end, it connects to a Python backend running in AWS Lambda. The app analyzes route geometry, lighting, and weather conditions using a trained machine-learning model, all deployed through Terraform to an S3 and CloudFront infrastructure.

Playing Card Classifier
An interactive web app that identifies a playing card from an uploaded or camera image. The model, built with TensorFlow, runs on AWS Lambda through a lightweight Python backend, while the React + TypeScript front end is hosted on Amazon S3 and served via CloudFront. It demonstrates serverless machine-learning inference and real-time user interaction in the browser. Click photo above or go to https://card-classifier.tarterware.com/
