Real Me

Choose your POV

"I’m a Computer Science undergrad who got tired of just studying tech and started building with it. Right now I’m working on a startup while doing research in computer vision and robotics. I like the kind of problems that sit at the edge of hardware and software, where things get genuinely interesting."

SoterCare

IoT & ML Based Elderly Care Monitoring System.

About the project

SDGP to Startup!

SoterCare is a wearable IoT and AI system designed to monitor elderly individuals around the clock. A discreet thigh-worn device tracks movement, temperature, and hygiene in real time, analysing gait to prevent accidents before they happen. Three AI agents work continuously in the background, sending instant alerts, generating daily health summaries, and answering medication questions. Like having a nurse by their side, 24/7.

MILO Robot

A free-roaming quadruped robot.

About the project

On Going!

I built MILO, a free-roaming quadruped robot that walks with a neural net, remembers you, and borrows brains. It keeps Sesame's 3D-printed frame, 8× MG90 servo layout, and expressive OLED face, and replaces everything else: the ESP32 gives way to a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W with a camera, stereo microphones, a speaker, and an IMU. MILO walks with a reinforcement-learning-trained neural network, stores everyone it meets in an on-robot knowledge graph, and gets its intelligence (LLM, speech, vision) from any GPU machine on your LAN running the Milo Brain desktop app.

IIT-GPU-Manager

Secure terminal gateway for SLURM GPU job submission at IIT

About the project

Implemented & Running 24/7

I built a secure terminal gateway for SLURM GPU job submission at IIT. Users connect via SSH and interact with a forced-command TUI. Every action is logged to SQLite and JSONL before it is executed. The gateway provides a menu-driven interface for users to upload files, set up environments, run jobs, and monitor their queue.

AutoHub

Self-hosted personal automation OS for Raspberry Pi 5

About the project

Will OSS soon!!

I built AutoHub as a self-hosted personal automation OS for my Raspberry Pi 5. It bundles a web terminal, plugin runner, Docker manager, n8n workflow integration, file browser, and Telegram notifications into a single Docker Compose stack. I wanted a simple way to manage my home automation, workflows, and development projects from a single interface. Planning to release this as OSS but since I'm also fully using this I have reduce the security vulnerabilities.
