Building Robots. Now Teaching Them to Think.

I'm a 5th semester BS Robotics and Intelligent Systems student at Bahria University Islamabad, with hands-on experience in hardware engineering, robotics, and a strong shifting focus toward Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision.

From building autonomous robots and RC planes to developing ML pipelines and AI-powered systems โ€” I connect hardware intuition with intelligent software to build things that actually work in the real world.

What I've Built (Hardware)

Autonomous River Cleaner Robot
HW_01
Autonomous River Cleaner Robot
Designed and built a self-operating boat capable of collecting floating waste from rivers. Constructed using polyfoam for buoyancy, Arduino-based control system for autonomous navigation, and integrated sensors for obstacle avoidance. Combines mechanical design, electronics, and programming for sustainable engineering.

Autonomous Balloon Popping Robot
HW_03
Autonomous Balloon Popping Robot
Built an autonomous robot using a 2-DOF manipulator to detect and pop red balloons. Integrated an ultrasonic sensor for obstacle avoidance and a color sensor for balloon detection.
ArduinoUltrasonic SensorColor Sensor2-DOF Manipulator
Sumo Robot Sumo Robot Alternate
HW_04
Sumo Robot โ€” AI InnoFest 2025
Built a sumo robot from scratch โ€” custom metal chassis, 2 DC planetary gear motors with bevel gear drive system, dual IBT-2 H-bridge motor drivers, and Arduino Nano control with Flysky RC transmitter. Motor driver failed on event day due to thermal overload โ€” learned real-world lessons in torque, gearing, and thermal management.
