I build custom hardware and measuring systems, embedded and PLC firmware, and the software around them — currently researching at THWS with Fresenius Medical Care.
I'm Aditya Patel, a mechatronics engineer studying and living in Germany. I work where software meets hardware: teaching robots to see, writing firmware for lab instruments, and designing the mechanical parts in between.
Away from the workbench I travel and hike, chase live music, play guitar, and take video games more seriously than I probably should.
Currently: research master's at THWS Schweinfurt, open to collaborations.
“The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.”
From spectra to insights: data-driven analysis of electrolyte impedance spectrograms using machine learning and design of experiments, run on automated custom measuring systems — in collaboration with Fresenius Medical Care.
Characterisation of the skin tissue barrier through impedance spectroscopy. I optimised and characterised the precision and accuracy of the custom measuring device, and optimised the Python GUI that controls and manages it — built on an EVAL-AD5940ELCZ front end handling 24 samples in a single experiment.
Industry project automating EV-battery cell disassembly. Built three fine-tuned object-detection models with live post-processing — one for each recycling stage — feeding pick coordinates directly to the robot.
Wrote the control logic for the nanoparticle-dialysis system on a Siemens ET200SP PLC, and interfaced the actuators and sensors around it.
Contributed to a custom nanoparticle dialysis system for medical research — firmware development on Texas Instruments hardware plus supporting electronics and hardware design.
Shop-floor work over the semester break: inventory control and management, reading engineering schematics, and servicing relays, PLCs and motion controllers.
Research master's (Forschungsmaster) with a focus on applied machine vision and automation.
Foundation across mechanics, electronics, and software — the full stack of physical products.
Graduated in Vadodara, India, before moving to Germany for engineering.
Firmware and electronics projects, from TI-based instrument control to hobby builds.
Write-up coming soonPlaces I've wandered with a camera — from Bavarian old towns to Southeast Asia.
Collaborations, interesting problems, or just a good conversation.
