Bastien8060

My name is Bastien Saidi. Currently 21yo.

(as of last edit: Sep 25th 2025, 1:57pm)

I grew up in Aix-En-Provence, France, followed by London and then Dublin (Ireland), where I studied a Bsc in computational social science at University College Dublin (UCD) (basically data science with politics).

My main focus is embedded systems, robotics, data pipelines, meshnetworks and general infrastructural implementation. I’ve previously worked on infra. for quantum systems / control interfaces. I now work on data pipelines and aggregation.

Through this, I’ve been made to pick up systems design for quantum, photonics, and various hardware–software integration.

My Projects

Over time, I've actively participated in and contributed to numerous projects. At this link, you can explore my contributions on GitHub


While I have many more projects than I could post on there, here are some projects that I currently feel proud of.

  • Microalgae Bioreactor

    Designed and built a compact photobioreactor for microalgae cultivation. Focused on nutrient circulation, light modulation, and oxygen exchange in controlled environment. Early steps toward closed-loop growth systems and tissue culture prototyping.

    As I really didn't know *much* at all about biotech, I had a biomed student help me on this. I've picked up bits and pieces though.
  • Biometrics Monitoring Platform

    Building a biometrics-based monitoring system for high-value operators. Tracks fatigue, alertness, and behavioral anomalies using off-the-shelf wearables and edge inference. Designed for low-latency alerting in industrial, defense, and critical infrastructure settings.

    Same person helped there. Interesting project though.
  • NovelTranslates

    The only Webnovel translator on the market that keeps the translation consistent (pronouns, tone, style of writing), using LLMs but without using large context windows or keeping the full story in context. (Link).
  • BrigaidNet

    Developped FPGA / ESP32 based optical transceivers capable of sending data through lasers at high bandwidth. Raised some money. (Link) (startup)
    • GraceAI

      An AI engine that helps recruiters identify legal issues in hiring remote workers, such as PE risks, tax implications, and labor law breaches. (Link)
    • LumiiOS

      Reversed engineer the Lunii Kids Storyteller (STM32). This PyPi library facilitates reading and interacting with encrypted stories from your Lunii device. (Link)

I will try post them as they come, but no promises!
