Everyone here is smart, distinguish yourself by being kind
- Bill Venables
Hi! I'm Dhruv.
I am a recently graduated Mechanical Engineer.
I am fascinated by the field of robotics and control.
Projects
These are some of the projects that I enjoyed doing. The major gain from these projects was not to only in terms of technical knowledge but also in other aspects such as staying under budget constraints, dividing work in teams, reacting to failures (often times!) and the nights spent at the labs.
