π Mechatronics Engineering Graduate | π€ Robotics & AI Enthusiast | π Future Robotics R&D (Software) Engineer | π± Interested in automating livestock rearing and fisheries (Precision Agriculture)
I am a Mechatronics Engineering graduate passionate about robotics, AI, and automation.
My primary focus is on the software aspects of robotics, though I aim to remain well-rounded with hardware experience.
My work spans embedded systems, computer vision, and intelligent control.
I enjoy building systems that connect the physical and digital worlds β from drones to smart detection systems.
