Hi, I'm Soumil Chugh - Engineer/Builder
Research Engineer @ Huawei, Canada
About Me
I currently serve as a Research Engineer at the Human Machine Interaction (HMI) Lab with Huawei, located in Toronto, Canada. Previously, I earned my Master of Applied Science (MASc) in Computer Engineering from the University of Toronto, Canada. During my time there, I had the privilege to work under the guidance of Prof. Jonathan Rose and Prof. Moshe Eizenman from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. My graduate thesis concentrated on the development of an Eye Tracking System specifically designed for a Virtual Reality (VR) Headset.
Prior Experience
In 2015, I received my undergraduate degree from Panjab University in Chandigarh, India, majoring in Electronics and Communication (ECE). Post-graduation, I accepted a position as a Software and Hardware Engineer at Jana Care in India. There, I contributed to the research and development team responsible for designing and implementing FDA-approved portable medical devices. In our portfolio of achievements, we designed a robotics system specifically to automate the HbA1c test. You can view details about this innovation here . I have also contributed to the development of the software stack from the ground up for General Prognostics Inc. , a remote disease management system.
Advancing User-centric Technologies: My Career Mission and Contributions
My overarching objective is to engineer systems that significantly impact end users directly. This includes the development of eye-tracking systems at Huawei, which are poised to be integrated into desktops and laptops, enhancing the human-computer interaction experience. Additionally, these systems will augment in-car safety features. Beyond this, we're exploring the potential of cutting-edge generative AI tools. These tools aren't just theoretical; they're being applied in practical ways, such as in AI-assisted copilots and interactive note-taking applications, to transform the way we interact with digital environments.
