Embedded Systems Research
Built a compact environmental sensing prototype using microcontrollers, sensor calibration and structured data collection.
I'm Alex Mehta, an engineering student who turns sketches, equations and curiosity into practical prototypes, from sensor systems to sustainable product concepts.
I enjoy the space between theory and reality: designing a circuit, modelling a mechanism, testing a material, finding the failure, then improving the next version. My portfolio is a record of that process, not just finished outcomes.
Built a compact environmental sensing prototype using microcontrollers, sensor calibration and structured data collection.
Worked in a student team to move from a problem statement to a functional physical prototype through iterative CAD and testing.
Started with electronics kits and basic fabrication, discovering that the best classroom is often a workbench.
A few student projects that show how I approach engineering problems: define the constraint, prototype quickly, measure honestly, and iterate.
Portable indoor air-quality monitor focused on low-cost sensing, enclosure design and clear feedback.
Compact lighting concept balancing energy efficiency, battery behaviour and a student-friendly modular enclosure.
Autonomous rover project exploring motor control, sensor thresholds and iterative mechanical alignment.
Structural design exercise comparing load paths, material use and simple optimisation through physical models.
My current toolkit is deliberately broad. I like learning enough of a discipline to connect it with the next one.
