Mechatronics Engineering Student · Muscat, Oman
Currently: Research Assistant — soft robotic rehabilitation, SQU
I am a Mechatronics Engineering student at Sultan Qaboos University focused on practical hardware-software systems: soft robotics, sensor feedback, pneumatic actuation, control logic, CAD design, and technical documentation.
About
My work sits at the intersection of mechanical design, embedded firmware, controls, and pneumatic actuation. I enjoy building systems that move, sense, respond, and provide measurable feedback rather than remaining as clean diagrams on paper.
I value clear documentation, practical testing, and honest limitations. A design that works only in a slide deck is decoration; a design that survives troubleshooting earns respect.
Selected Engineering Projects
Flagship · Course Project → Funded Research · 2026
Portable electropneumatic controller (ESP32, PID + finite-state machine, flex-sensor feedback) for assisted finger motion — built for a course, then expanded as a Research Assistant.
Machine Design · MCTE4102 · Fall 2025
A 2.53:1 reduction gearbox coupling a 3800 rpm engine to a reciprocating air compressor — shafts, gears, bearings, and head bolts each sized for infinite life.
Instrumentation & Measurements · MCTE4145 · Fall 2025
Turning a non-contact displacement transducer's tiny inductance change into a clean 0–100 mV DC reading — via an L–C AC bridge, a linearity-error budget, and full signal conditioning.
Embedded Systems · ECCE4227 · Fall 2025
Bare-metal ATmega8 access control in C — keypad PIN + RFID, a servo lock, and proximity/tamper sensing. Simulated in Proteus, then built on the bench.
Mechanical Design · MCTE3250
SolidWorks design of a pipe-crawling inspection robot: a camera module, sealed electronics compartments, and an articulated bracing frame.
Robotics · Sumo Competition
A panel-built mini-sumo robot designed in Fusion 360 + AutoCAD and built on an aluminium base with infrared proximity sensors to find and shove its opponent out of the ring.
Modeling & Simulation · MCTE4150 · Fall 2025
State-space modelling and Simulink simulation of a half-car suspension, evaluating the ride at the driver's seat over a single road bump.
Control Systems · MCTE4450 · Spring 2026
Hardware system-ID and closed-loop speed control of a DC servo motor — identified from NI-DAQ step tests and validated on the rig, written up as an IEEE paper.
Signals & Systems · MCTE4185
A MATLAB signal-processing project covering discrete-time system analysis and the filtering of recorded signals.
