About

I work at the intersection of robotics, ergonomics and human behaviour: building furniture that finally adapts to people. I’m the Founder & CEO of Water Robotics, the company behind CAMA, the world’s first Active Ergonomic Surface: a bed that senses posture, understands pressure distribution, and physically adjusts to your body in real time. We build everything in-house; mechanics, electronics, firmware, AI, materials, and industrial design. A small team of engineers and designers from BITS, IITs, and NITs, creating a category that didn’t exist before we imagined and built it. My interests span mathematics, psychology, product design, human posture, and adaptive intelligence. Earlier: Microsoft, Ola, Zapr, Multiplier. If you’re curious about Robotic Furniture, Active Ergonomics, or our upcoming CES showcase: I’d love to connect.
