## About

```text
At Purple Technologies, I designed and delivered a gesture-controlled wheelchair prototype that replaced manual joystick input with real-time finger-gesture steering. I built a pipeline connecting OpenCV and YOLO video to Arduino hardware actuation.

I also built Scrideo, a Flask transcription service using Whisper and FFmpeg, with JWT authentication and saved transcription history. With GeoDora, I built and deployed a geography learning platform featuring interactive quizzes, country comparisons, and search.
