End-to-end IoT + Android system for crowd density prediction using audio classification. No cameras, no privacy compromise. Research grant from I-Hub DivyaSampark (Govt. of India × IIT Roorkee). Selected for deployment at Nashik's Kumbh Mela via MIT Kumbhathon.
A non-profit I founded that designs and releases open-source hardware products anyone can build, modify, and distribute freely. Because the best tools should be free to exist in the world.
Digital payments, but faster. A bump-to-share UPI deeplink system — open the payment flow the instant two phones bump. No QR. No typing. Just bump.
A three-button programmable hardware controller for OpenClaw — turns repetitive multi-step actions into a single press. Built for speed. Custom hardware, real utility.
A smart Rust CLI for identifying, monitoring and managing Arduino and microcontroller COM/serial ports. VID/PID detection, real-time watch mode, nicknames, connection history, JSON/CSV export.
IoT home automation device that snaps onto any door, opens and closes when a person stands in front, and supports remote lock/unlock via RF. Top 9 at AtomQuest, IIT Bombay Techfest.
Lightweight Android app tracking monthly UPI expenses with real-time spend overlays during UPI app usage. Published on the Play Store.
Hardware machine for contract bridge — deals cards in any pre-defined order, replicates famous international games, enables post-game analysis. Built for a client.
Wearable device with custom PCB that amplifies a speaker's muffled voice through a face mask. Custom casing clamps directly to the mask. Exhibited at IISc Pravega.
Browser-based POV wand clone — UI elements flicker like LEDs; move the device quickly and the text becomes readable. Physics in the browser, no libraries.
I'm a builder — the kind who sees a problem and immediately starts sketching a solution on a PCB. That instinct started young, pulling apart electronics to see how they worked, and it's grown into open-source contributions, a non-profit, a patent, and a lot of hardware that exists in the real world.
I founded Yantra-Commons, a non-profit that builds and open-sources hardware — because the best tools should be free to exist in the world. Outside the lab, I mentor the next generation through Google Summer of Code at Learning Unlimited.
When I'm not building, I'm on the pickleball court — state-level player. Recently got a Bambu P1S and have been printing enclosures for my own projects. I also run a tech YouTube channel and spend weekends deep in electronics and robotics.
Open to interesting conversations — projects, open-source collabs, mentorship, or just something you're building that you think I'd find cool.
