Building for contact
I won the 8 kg category at 
IIT Bombay’s International Robowars in 2025. Robotics took my work from software into motors, batteries, mechanical tolerances, and repair.
The weight limit makes every part a trade-off. Structure, drive, power, and protection share the same budget. The design has to survive impact while remaining controllable.
The build archive
These photographs follow the work from an early concept to assembled robots and arena testing. The iteration happened across builds: assemble, test, inspect the damage, change the design.
The photographs are from my robotics archive. They show the broader build process and are not all from the same competition.
