Prototypes, systems work, and earlier projects.

Building LLM-powered assistants that help people move through long, multi-step workflows with less stress and fewer mistakes. These are currently prototypes and reference designs, not public products.

• Structured, typed data models instead of unbounded free-form notes.
• Step-by-step flows with clear confirmations and “checkpoints.”
• LLMs used for judgement, drafting, and summarization – not hidden magic.
• Designed so users can always see what the system knows and why.

• TypeScript
• Node
• PostgreSQL
• LLM orchestration

Small, opinionated tools and example apps built around real constraints: scheduling, planning, money, and everyday logistics. These are currently personal prototypes and reference implementations, not active client work.

• Designing and implementing lightweight web apps and dashboards.
• Exploring mobile-friendly UIs and flows for busy, non-technical users.
• Putting reliability and debuggability ahead of shiny complexity.

• React
• FastAPI / Node
• REST APIs

Internal tools to manage personal finances, planning, and recurring tasks — basically building the systems I wish I’d had earlier. These are private utilities I use myself, not commercial products.

• Budgeting and cash-flow planning around real-world debt and 0% APR offers.
• Simple automations to reduce repetitive admin work.
• Iterating quickly on ideas before turning them into full products.

• Python
• Spreadsheets & scripts
• Backend services

M.S. research project focused on connected vehicles and cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC), exploring how to make vehicle platoons more robust against adversarial behavior and sensor faults.

• Designed and simulated a CACC scenario with communicating vehicles under normal and attack conditions.
• Implemented machine-learning based detection to identify malicious or faulty vehicles in the platoon.
• Evaluated impact on safety and stability when isolating compromised nodes from the control loop.

• CACC
• Machine learning
• MATLAB / Simulink

Designed and implemented a working Twitter-style engine using Elixir and the Phoenix framework to explore distributed systems concepts.

• Implemented core functionality of a microblogging platform in a distributed setting.
• Focused on real-time updates and client–server communication.
• Used the project to deepen understanding of fault tolerance and concurrency.

B.Tech final project: A portable single-seater electric vehicle with an embedded system and Android UI, designed to help differently abled and senior users move more safely and independently.

• Developed an Android app UI to control speed, direction, and braking.
• Monitored voltage, current, speed, and temperature in real time on the UI.
• Implemented Bluetooth communication (HC-05) between the app and an MSP430-based embedded system.
• Designed relay-based control for rear drive and steering, with safety and stability in mind.

Robotic Arm Equipped Solar Powered Hybrid Electric Wheelchair Assistive mobility prototype for the Texas Instruments Innovation Challenge India Design Contest 2015, aimed at giving wheelchair users more independence in everyday tasks.

• Equipped with two 6-DOF robotic arms (≈1.2 m reach, ≈700 g payload) to handle tasks like reading, eating with a spoon, and pouring water.
• Solar-powered hybrid electric wheelchair: on-board panel combined with a 2-DOF mechanical solar tracker and a Perturb & Observe MPPT algorithm to improve charging efficiency.
• Head-tracking based wheelchair control and eye-tracking based end-effector control, implemented with image processing on a BeagleBone.
• Inverse kinematics on the BeagleBone for coordinated arm motion and safe operation around the user.
• Designed as a low-cost, eco-friendly alternative to existing electric wheelchairs to improve quality of life and accessibility.
• Selected as a semi-finalist (top 86 out of 1209 teams) in the Texas Instruments Innovation Challenge India Design Contest 2015.

A prototype smartwatch that mirrors SMS and missed-call information from a phone, built entirely from low-cost components.

• Developed an Android app to forward incoming messages and missed calls to the watch.
• Used an MSP430 microcontroller and HC-05 Bluetooth module for communication.
• Displayed messages and caller numbers on an LCD screen; implemented basic timekeeping.
• Placed as second runner-up at Sangam Pragyan 2014 among 300+ teams.

A non-invasive home power monitoring system with live measurements and visualization to help understand and manage energy usage.

• Used non-invasive current sensors and voltage sensing to measure load and voltage.
• Computed real-time voltage, current, power factor, and power on an MSP430.
• Sent data over Bluetooth to an Android app for live visualization.
• Used zero-crossing detection for power factor estimation; graphed power vs time and PF vs time.
• Aimed at identifying spikes/surges and enabling smarter energy usage.
