About Me

I am an Electrical and Computer Systems Engineer with a Master’s in Computer Networks and System Security from NED University. As Team Lead at HHRCM Lab, NCRA NEDUET, I drive indigenous innovation in haptics, human-robot interaction, embedded systems, and industrial IoT.

My journey includes leading R&D for products like the NED-Smart Tape Measure, Industrial Pull Tester, and MDOF Robotic Arm, commercialized with partners like J&P Coats, Indentorspk, and E-BEX. I’ve filed six patents, published in IEEE, MDPI, and secured grants from NCRA, SRSP, and NRPU.

As CTO and Co-Founder of Haptronica and RobAutoStem, incubated under NIC Karachi, I’ve won PKR 1M at Sindh Innovative Startups Showcase 2025 and secured strategic partnerships with FPCCI, KATI, J&P Coats, Global Innovatrix to scale our solutions.
