Hi, I'm Luis SAMPEDRO
Naval Architect & Maritime Engineer from Galicia, working at the intersection of high-performance sailing, data analysis and engineering design.
In this project I try to create my personal space online, containing my projects and, especially, my data analysis tools and image processing software.
Project tools
These are the projects and applications I am developing inside this space. Some are already fully functional, while others are still work in progress.
LS Sail Scan (L3S)
[NEW] Upload a sail photo and automatically analyze draft position and depth using computer vision.
LS Data Lab (LSDL)
Online workspace for processing nautical data: GPS logs, sensor streams and race tracks. Inspired by other sailing data analysis tools, focused on speed, VMG and manoeuvre analysis.
International Moth Simulator (SiM)
My MSc Project: A 6-DOF dynamic simulator for the International Moth class. Physics-based modelling of hydrofoils, aero-hydrodynamics and flight control systems.
LS Current App (LSC App)
[NEW] Tool to visualise currents, wind and racecourse data together. Designed to help understand how external conditions affect routing, laylines and tactical decisions on the racecourse.
LS Nav (LSN)
[NEW] A marine navigation web-app with integrated high-resolution charts, live GPS tracking, and route planning. Built for navigating the Galician coast.
LS Design Tools (LSD)
A collection of small utilities for yacht design: hull and foil parameter explorers, basic VPP-style calculators and links with CFD workflows.
LS Foiling Academy (LSFA)
Central hub for courses, talks and hands-on experiences about high-performance sailing: learn how to sail foiling boats, understand Moth technique, improve boat handling and gain real on-water knowledge.
