👋 Hey, I’m Clarke Chan

🚀 About Me

I’m a Software Engineer focusing on:

• 🖥 C# | WinForms / WPF / .NET Framework 4.8
• 🤖 Industrial Automation
• 📷 Machine Vision (2D Inspection / Cognex / Halcon / MVS SDK)
• 🗄 SQLite / MySQL traceability platforms
• 🧠 Learning Deep Learning & Computer Vision (PyTorch)

I love building automation systems that run on real production lines,
where software meets hardware.
