As the team leader, I directed the PassoBitGlobal project, which integrated cryptocurrency into the Passolig ticketing system. This solution revolutionized ticket purchasing by enhancing security, leveraging blockchain technology for transparency, and minimizing vulnerabilities during cryptocurrency transactions. By enabling users to invest in team tokens, the project fostered fan engagement and contributed to the financial sustainability of the sports economy. It showcased the seamless integration of emerging technologies into existing systems while prioritizing data security and transaction transparency.

Autonomous Vehicles and Legal Liability – Technological Evolution, Regulatory Alignment, and Security Gaps

My thesis explored the technological advancements of autonomous vehicles and their ethical, legal, and technical implications. I analyzed their operational mechanisms, decision-making processes, and societal impacts, with a focus on security measures and gaps in legal frameworks.

Additionally, I compared regulatory approaches from different regions, including the United States, the European Union, and Asia, highlighting their similarities and differences. This analysis emphasized the global impact of regulatory gaps and security challenges.

By adopting an interdisciplinary approach, I proposed recommendations to bridge legal and security gaps, providing a roadmap for the safe and responsible global adoption of autonomous vehicle technologies.

I developed a creative story generation application using Python and the ChatGPT API, designed to generate personalized and unique stories based on user inputs. The project prioritized secure data processing and ensured the privacy of user-provided inputs during the AI-driven story generation process.

This application demonstrated the potential of artificial intelligence in enhancing user experiences while maintaining strong data protection measures, emphasizing the balance between innovation and security in AI-based solutions.
