Choosing no favorites between software and hardware, Ayan finds magic in the balance between mind and machine.
I love the balance. There’s a special joy in writing code and then seeing a robot respond to it. It’s like turning thoughts into motion. I enjoy the logic of algorithms, but also the hands-on challenges of integrating sensors, motors, and all the little things that make a robot feel alive.
In his interview, he shares his ambitions and what it means to build robots that think and move like us.
