BlueCycle

Automated Rainwater Collector


A self-regulating irrigation system that collects rainwater and waters plants based on real-time soil conditions.

Reduces water waste and supports sustainable, small-scale agriculture.


Aurora Borealis

Oct 11, 2024


When the northern light conquers the night,
When the stars shine their bright.

But what if dream overcomes the chase?
Let the sky remain in the casual night.
What if whisper of the night were a mystery?
Let the untold story fade into the vast.

What if fatigue went along the day?
What if assignments entangled with stress?

What if, what if…

What if?


AWS

Auto Watering System


Smart plant irrigation module that waters plants based on soil moisture and sends user notifications via email using Raspberry Pi.

Built by wiring a moisture sensor to a mechanical system to activate the pump, routing the water tubing, and programming threshold-based activation with automatic email alerts when the soil is dry.

This is an interactive model of the water storage for this project.

Alone in the vast emptiness, listening to the roar of the cascade,
bearing the biting cold, feeling the mist's soft touch,
and braving the relentless wind.


voron 2.4

Custom FDM 3D Printer


A high-precision, open-source FDM 3D printer built on a Voron 2.4 R2 chassis.

Built fully independently, wiring and assembling all mechanical and electronic subsystems, and calibrating the machine for reliable, repeatable printing.


E-Board

Electric Skateboard


Converted a standard skateboard into a single hub-motor electric board with VESC control and a Li-ion power system.

Designed and 3D-printed a custom motor mount and electronics enclosure; integrated wiring, battery, and controller into a compact under-deck layout.

This is an interactive model of all the 3D-printed parts in this project.


Echos of the divine

Jun 21, 2024


Within these walls, the silence speaks in whispers of light and shadow, stories to pray.


Auto-Lighting

Home Automated System


Smart lighting setup using an ESP32 and relay module, integrated into Apple HomeKit for wireless and voice control.

This device has kept my living room bright and warm since I moved to the US. It's reliable and stable for my family's everyday use.


The Timeless Rift

Jun 23, 2024


Exist, dismantle, reconstruct—for countless cycles, until all cease to be, where times seem to pause, and spacetime feels infinite.


Dolomites

Jul 4, 2025


Dolomites — the most dreamlike journey I’ve taken this summer.

No noise from the city,
only the breath of nature, the footsteps of cattle,
and me, gently sealing this slow journey into my lens.

Dolomites, through my lens.


Port of Color

Flight Over Stee


Amid the rigid geometry of towering buildings, the birds surge skyward, but freedom blooms, carried on their wings.


The Frozen Passage

Jun 23, 2024


Through the layered ice, a path craves its way into a frozen world untouched by time to discover and explore.


Drone Photogrammetry


In-development 3D campus model generated through aerial photogrammetry using drone imagery.

Testing models at a parking lot

Collecting aerial images, converting them into a point cloud and mesh, and preparing the model for 3D printing to create a physical miniature.
