Projects

Robotic Arm

Robotics & Control

Designed and built a multi-joint robotic arm using servos and microcontroller-based control. Focused on precise motion control, kinematics, and repeatable positioning for small pick-and-place style tasks.

Motion Detection Fan

Sensors & Automation

Created an automated fan system that activates based on motion detection. Integrated PIR sensors, basic control logic, and safety considerations to reduce power use while maintaining comfort.

Auto-Dimming Nightlight

Embedded Systems

Built a nightlight that automatically adjusts brightness based on ambient light levels. Used light sensors and microcontroller-based PWM control to create a smooth and responsive dimming experience.

Anti-Procrastination Tool

Human-Centred Design

Developed a small hardware-based tool to discourage procrastination and encourage focused work sessions. Combined simple feedback mechanisms with timers and habit-forming cues.
