About Me

Hello! I am Dhruv Bhilare, a Sophmore majoring in Computer and Electrical Engineering at the University of Cincinnati. Born and raised in India, I moved to the United States to further my education and pursue my passion for robotics and innovation.

With a strong foundation in both hardware and software, I enjoy working on projects that blend electronics, programming, and mechanical design. My goal is to create innovative and efficient technologies that solve real-world problems.

When I’m not soldering circuits or writing code, you’ll probably find me playing Basketball, working out, or listening to music. Those moments keep me balanced and often spark the next big idea.


This website serves as a portfolio of my work, showcasing my projects, ideas, and technical expertise. I am always eager to learn, collaborate, and push the boundaries of what's possible in robotics and hardware-software technologies.
