Anurag Aggarwal

Mechatronics + AI engineer — building intelligent hardware and software that solve real-world problems.

Maker. Mentor. Mess-up Expert

Hi — I'm Anurag. Curious maker, coffee-lover, and someone who prefers figuring things out with my hands (and a little chaos).

I'm currently pursuing a BESc in Mechatronics and Artificial Intelligence Systems Engineering (Dual Degree) at the University of Western Ontario (Cumulative GPA: 3.9).

I love turning rough sketches into working prototypes, running beginner-friendly workshops, and helping friends debug — the messy, hands-on part is my favorite. Outside the lab I recharge with good coffee, a quick workout, and decent sleep — it keeps me curious and calm.

Got a weird idea or want to trade failure stories over coffee? I'm in.

Roles & Impact — What I built and why it mattered.

Real projects — from prototype to demo — that solved real problems, saved time, and taught me how to build smarter.

Embedded Systems and Mechatronics Developer

Tethos Association

Sept. 2025 – Present

Collaborating on an interactive sensor glove: designing casing + circuit prototypes, integrating sensors on Arduino, and aligning hardware data with gameplay logic for responsive motion mapping.

Computer Vision & AI-Powered Automation Intern

Kissan Engineers (Casting)

May – Sept. 2025

Built a CV-based defect inspection ML system and supporting data workflows to reduce manual operator checks and enable real-time defect flagging on the production line.
