The Story So Far

I'm Shashank Hugar, a Mechanical Engineering undergrad at UVCE (University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering), Bangalore — one of India's oldest and most prestigious engineering colleges.

My curiosity doesn't stay in one lane. By day I'm tinkering with mechanics and circuits. By night I'm diving into AI/ML algorithms, watching films, or planning my next build. I believe the future belongs to people who can think across disciplines — and that's exactly what I'm training myself to do.

When I'm not engineering things, you'll find me behind a camera, dissecting what makes a great story, or deep in a rabbit hole about Artificial General Intelligence.

What I Work With

🤖
AI / ML
Exploring machine learning algorithms, neural networks, and the road to AGI. Currently learning through UVCE MARVEL.
✈️
RC Aeronautics
Designed, built, and flew RC planes from scratch. One selected for national-level competition at IIT Kharagpur.
Vibe Coding
Bringing ideas to life with code — fast, creative, and unconventional. If it looks cool and works, it's good enough.
🎬
Filmmaking
Passionate about visual storytelling, cinematography, and the art of capturing moments that last forever.
🔧
Mechanical Design
Hands-on experience with mechanical systems, CAD, fabrication, and hardware prototyping.
🧩
Robotics
Built autonomous systems including a maze solver robot — combining hardware, logic, and control systems.

Things I've Built

IIT KGP Selected
