I'm Alex Mehta, an engineering student exploring mechanical systems, embedded prototypes and sustainable design. I like messy problems, physical experiments and elegant solutions.
For me, engineering is a loop: observe → model → build → measure → improve. My portfolio follows that same flow.
From sketching mechanisms to wiring microcontrollers, I enjoy crossing the boundary between theory and tangible systems. I document assumptions, test early and treat failure as useful data.
Student projects presented as engineering stories: the constraint, the experiment and what changed after testing.
Passive heat-recovery concept for a small-scale water system, optimized through thermal modelling and physical testing.
Compact sensor rover for classroom field mapping, combining motor control, distance sensing and modular chassis design.
Low-cost grain-storage monitor concept using humidity thresholds and a simple alert architecture.
No artificial percentage scores: just a snapshot of where I currently spend my build time.
A compact timeline for education, competitions and the experiences shaping my engineering direction.
Leading a four-person prototype team investigating practical efficiency improvements for a small thermal system.
Developed and tested a modular mechanism under a strict material and weight constraint.
Started with sensors, motors and a lot of debugging, then discovered how much fun systems thinking could be.
