About / Bilal Sabugar

I like building the whole system.

Mechanical design, control, sensing and the software around a machine. My work connects those parts through prototypes, research and engineering tools.

I’m the co-founder and CTO of Aetheron Labs LLP and a second-year B.Tech student in Artificial Intelligence & Robotics at ATLAS SkillTech University.

My experience includes a June–July 2026 research internship at the IITGN Robotics Lab, building Novexa with a team, and developing robotics and engineering software. The project records explain my contribution, the decisions and the available evidence.

Research experience / Robotics Research Intern

IIT Gandhinagar.
Robotics in the lab.

At the IITGN Robotics Lab, I worked with Aditya Jadav and Archie Veera on tactile-based ball balancing using a half-humanoid platform.

From sensing to physical control

I developed Python control pipelines as the ball-balancing work progressed from single-axis vision-based balancing to two-axis pitch-roll control with dual load-cell sensing. The work combined OpenCV, Intel RealSense, HX711 interfaces and Dynamixel actuators.

My work included PD/PID control, online system identification, adaptive gain scheduling and backlash compensation. OSRS records the shared platform and team contributions; its published simulation results are kept separate from physical testing.

Capabilities / With project context

Where I can contribute.

Specific areas of work, with a project you can inspect for each.

01 / Mechanical systems

From CAD to assembly

Mechanical design, printed components and mechatronic integration. In Novexa, I contributed to the work joining the structure, actuators and electronics.

Novexa: design and physical prototype
02 / Robotics software

Connect the experiment

Platform engineering, control interfaces and online system identification. OSRS records my responsibilities alongside the other core contributors.

OSRS: platform and team contribution
03 / Engineering tools

Make decisions inspectable

Product direction and workflow design for research tools. RoboScout connects sources and deterministic calculations; its implementation uses AI coding agents.
