Autonomous indoor mapping robot
A robot that turns LiDAR scans into room maps, then uses them to find its way. Built from the wheel controller up.

Adrith Kurlagunda
I’m Adrith, a UCLA student from the Bay Area studying computer engineering, with interests in machine learning and robotics.
I want to push the frontiers of technology and build things that last.
Selected work
01 — 03
Relist
From clothing photos to reviewed resale listings. An applied AI workflow that makes room for evidence, uncertainty, and human judgment.
Patented solar water purification system
A portable Fresnel-lens system with temperature-controlled water flow. I designed and prototyped the hardware and authored the patent application through grant.
Before UCLA
A few things I worked on while at Irvington High School in Fremont.
UC Santa Cruz · COSMOS
Student researcher
Compared machine-learning models for electrical-grid failure prediction and explored smart-grid reliability.
Xponent Power
Engineering intern
Supported deployable solar awning prototypes, assembly, and component verification against CAD specifications.
D2Solar
Engineering intern
Built testing fixtures and soldering jigs, connecting mechanical design with hands-on solar manufacturing.
Personal Interests
Coffee
Making coffee is a daily ritual that lets me slow down and think. I love brewing a cup, trying new coffees, and café hopping to explore new places at my own pace.
I also love playing sports, especially spikeball and soccer.
Always curious. Happy to talk.
If you’re working on machine learning, robotics, or something in between, I’d love to connect.
