Things I've Built
01
Multimodal Elevator System with Gaze & Voice Controls
A multimodal elevator system combining touch, multilingual voice (Hindi,
Gujarati, English), and eye-tracking. Built a digital prototype and an edge-computing hardware
prototype. User study with 30 participants demonstrated excellent usability across all modalities.
