During Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2025, I worked on bringing Public Resolver Errors (PRE) support into Chromium’s DNS stack, extending the existing Extended DNS Error (EDE, RFC 8914) mechanism. The goal is to help Chromium understand why a DNS query failed when a public resolver blocks a domain for policy, legal or other reasons. So the browser can eventually surface a meaningful explanation instead of a generic “DNS error”.

Participating again for the second year, we developed a self-balancing electric motorcycle that autonomously follows an electromagnetic track using self-designed magnetic sensors. Without the aid of a flywheel, the vehicle maintains stability through precise real-time control algorithms.

We designed and built a Mecanum-wheeled smart vehicle capable of rapidly locating and autonomously positioning an acoustic beacon.
