From clean energy experiments to AI-powered assistive glasses — here's what we build.

Energy

Wind turbine and solar panel energy comparison experiment

Wind Energy vs Sun Energy

Back then, fossil fuels dominated our energy grid. We set out to compare two clean alternatives: wind and solar. By powering LEDs through a wind turbine and a solar panel, we measured voltage, current, and efficiency under real conditions. The result? Both sources performed similarly — suggesting neither is strictly superior, and the right choice depends on environment.

As the world shifts to renewables, understanding where each technology excels becomes critical. Our experiment gave us a hands-on foundation for that question.

Environment

CO2 and air quality sensor using Arduino Nano and MQ135

Comparing Air Quality

Human activity has measurably degraded air quality over decades. We built a compact device using an Arduino Nano and MQ135 sensor to detect CO₂ and sulfur dioxide levels in real time — displaying readings on an I2C screen and alerting users when levels rise dangerously.

The project makes invisible pollution tangible, helping people understand how their environment is changing and why it matters for long-term health.

AI / Vision

SoundView smart glasses prototype for visually impaired users

SoundView Smart Glasses

At least 2.2 billion people live with vision impairment worldwide. SoundView is our answer — a wearable device that captures the world through a camera, processes it with an AI model, and delivers a real-time spoken description through a speaker. Built with a microcontroller, a few wires, and minimal cost.

The hardware fits inside a standard glasses frame, making it discreet and practical. The system is designed to be affordable enough to reach people who need it most — not just those who can afford $4,000 commercial devices.
