### MotoNav
A motorcycle wanted to talk to my phone. So I taught it how.
A motorcycle navigation companion that pairs a Flutter app with an ESP32 over Bluetooth Low Energy, surfacing turn-by-turn offline-map cues on a round handlebar-mounted display without ever pulling out a phone.

### Remote X
Every remote in the house, replaced by one that actually knows where it is.
A universal IR remote system built around a Raspberry Pi Pico, controlled from a Flutter app with Firebase syncing state across devices — one interface for everything that used to need its own clicker.
- Tech: Flutter, Firebase, Raspberry Pi Pico
- GitHub: https://github.com/IamThejus/Remote-X/

### Pico WebChat
A chat interface small enough to fit on a microcontroller.
A lightweight web chat interface served directly from a Raspberry Pi Pico.
- Tech: Raspberry Pi Pico, Embedded Systems
- GitHub: https://github.com/IamThejus/Pico-WebChat

### Saragama API
Every music project needs the same data plumbing. So I built it once.
A free REST API providing structured YouTube Music data — six endpoints, JSON responses, no ads or subscriptions — so other apps don't have to build that plumbing themselves.
- Tech: Python, FastAPI, REST API
- GitHub: https://github.com/IamThejus/SaraGama-API/
- Demo: https://saragama-render.onrender.com/

### Iris
"Hey Iris." That's the whole interface.
A wake-word voice assistant with a live conversation log — say the name, and it starts listening.
- Tech: Python, AI, Speech Recognition
- GitHub: https://github.com/IamThejus/IRIS

### SNGCE Attendance API
The attendance portal made you log in and click through five pages. So I scraped it.
A FastAPI service that scrapes the SNGCE student portal and serves clean, structured JSON — attendance data without the manual login, built for mobile apps, dashboards, and other campus tools.
- Tech: FastAPI, Web Scraping, JSON API
- GitHub: https://github.com/IamThejus/sngce-fastapi

### HomeLab
A self-hosted home server (An older Dell Inspiron laptop) running Debian 13, with SSD for the OS and applications, HDD for bulk storage.
- Services: Jellyfin (I named it Eevee), Media streaming, NAS / Samba, Downloads, Self-hosted services, Storage management, CasaOS
