Yug Thapar.
Architecting Intelligence across Hardware, Mobile & Web.
I engineer the convergence of Artificial Intelligence, Embedded Systems, and Web & Mobile Applications. From autonomous robotics to scalable digital platforms, I build technology that thinks and interacts with the physical world.
01.About Me
I am a Computer Science student at Arizona State University (4.0 GPA) with a deep focus on Artificial Intelligence, Embedded Hardware, and Web & Mobile Development. My passion lies in the lab—fusing silicon with neural networks to create autonomous machines and responsive digital ecosystems. My background spans Full-Stack Engineering, having co-founded Solvrz Inc. to deploy scalable fintech and web solutions. However, my primary work involves Hardware-Software Convergence. From building computer vision pipelines for smart wardrobes to programming ESP32 microcontrollers for medical IoT, I develop systems that sense, think, and act. I don't just write code; I build intelligent interfaces between the digital and physical realms.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- ▹ Python (AI/ML)
- ▹ C++ (Embedded)
- ▹ Flutter / Dart (Mobile)
- ▹ React / Next.js (Web)
- ▹ TensorFlow / PyTorch
- ▹ OpenCV / Computer Vision
- ▹ Arduino / ESP32
- ▹ IoT & Embedded Systems
- ▹ Node.js / Backend
- ▹ Google Cloud (GCP)
- ▹ Firebase
- ▹ Docker / CI/CD
- ▹ Git / GitHub
OS: Arch Linux x86_64
