Raged Lab

Raged Lab / Signal -> Intelligence -> Action

I build systems that sense the world and respond intelligently.

I am Kritim Bastola, a Master's student in Computer Science at the University of New Mexico, originally from Nepal. I work at the intersection of research, software, robotics, accessibility, and human-centered technology.

Mission Map

Major systems connected by one pattern: sense, reason, act.

Raged Lab is organized around missions instead of a standard project grid. Each mission explores a signal: biological, environmental, audio, support-workflow, or robotic.
