  1. R-01 Saarthi (H7-Pro) A dual-MCU flight controller on a 90 mm board, with the servo outputs driven only by a separate safety microcontroller. In layout — schematic complete, routing in progress 2026
  2. R-02 TESSERA Thermal-infrared to colour for Landsat imagery, for ISRO's Bharatiya Antariksh Hackathon 2026, with a map of where the model is guessing. Research 2026
  3. R-03 VAJRA A point-to-point post-quantum secure link between a controller and a node, frozen at v1.0 in Rust. v1.0 (frozen) 2026
  4. R-04 ANAV An autonomous UAV for a Martian-surface landing scenario that maps hazards from its camera and IMU and picks the safest place to land. Built 2024–25
  5. R-05 Dhwani-Kavach Live dual-microphone speech enhancement for noisy environments, built for Smart India Hackathon 2026 (SIH26052, DRDO). Bench-tested 2026
  6. R-06 SMRITI A local-first household system for an older adult and their family. It runs on the home Wi‑Fi, and nothing goes to the cloud. Prototype 2026
  7. R-07 PitSense A Formula 1 strategy workbench with historical stint data, a race-time optimiser under explicit assumptions, and a Streamlit dashboard. Prototype 2026
  8. R-08 IoT & Robotics Club website The website for Bennett University's IoT & Robotics Club, with events, projects, and a 3D robot hero. Built 2026
  9. L-01 SKYNET A Raspberry Pi companion flew a 2 m takeoff, hover, and landing mission in ArduPilot simulation, and the autopilot landed on its own when the companion was killed. Simulation-tested 2026
  10. L-02 PRAHARI A learned navigation policy for GPS-denied flight that can only act inside limits verified in advance. Concept

I'm Vedant Somani, a B.Tech computer science student at Bennett University (2024–28). I build flight controllers, drones, and the software that runs on and around them.

My projects cross the line between hardware and software on purpose. Saarthi is a flight-controller board and its firmware; TESSERA turns thermal satellite imagery into colour for ISRO's hackathon; VAJRA is a point-to-point post-quantum link. Each one only works if the layers under it are understood.

I'm building toward defence technology: autonomous systems that can be trusted because their hardware, software, and communication were designed together.
