Hey, I'm Mishal Sagar.

SPICE · Neuromorphic Design

A spiking neural network built from integrate-and-fire neurons, designed entirely in custom transistor-level circuitry.

• Designed every neuron cell in custom NMOS/PMOS analog circuitry at the 65nm process, without standard CMOS digital logic blocks.
• Built programmable synaptic weight elements and the inter-neuron interconnect.
• Analyzed area coverage and spike-timing dynamics through SPICE-level simulation.

Tiva C · UART · HID · Embedded C

A glove that turns finger orientation into real-time keyboard input.

• Built around a Tiva C microcontroller that reads finger orientations and maps them to keystrokes.
• Configured the glove as a Human-Interface Device (HID) over UART serial communication for plug-and-play PC use.

YOLOv8n · DWA · Python

A robot that sees the people around it and plans its path politely.

• Detected and tracked nearby pedestrians in real time with YOLOv8n-pose.
• Integrated the Dynamic Window Approach (DWA) for socially aware motion planning.
• Deployed the full perception-to-planning pipeline on the RoboMaster EP Core platform.

Op-Amps · BJTs · Active Filters · PCB Design

A heart rate monitor built with analog signal conditioning, from sensor to PCB.

• Used IR-reflective photoplethysmography (PPG) to detect small volumetric changes in blood flow.
• Built the conditioning and amplification chain with op-amps, BJTs and active filters.
• Tuned component selection and PCB layout for signal integrity and ambient light and noise rejection.

IEEE LUMS Student Chapter · Lahore, Pakistan

• Set the chapter's strategic direction with the Chair and coordinate directors and committees.
• Run technical workshops, talks and professional development events for members.
• Manage operations, budgets, and industry and faculty outreach, and mentor members.
