About Me

Hi, I’m Chaitanya, an AI Engineer at PhillipCapital based in Singapore. In my free time, I like to work on projects in AI/ML and sports analytics. I studied Computer Science at NTU and have been writing since 2017.


Current Projects

Unmute

A real-time Singapore Sign Language translation app that converts text or voice in any language to sign sequences, rendered by a 2D avatar. Built using Gemini for multilingual translation and MediaPipe for pose estimation. Finished 3rd out of 200 teams at the Gemini 3 Hackathon.

RPG — Robotic Planning with Gemini

An embodied AI system that lets a robot understand and plan tasks in an unfamiliar environment using only sequential photographs. Covers scene decomposition, floor plan synthesis, spatial localisation, and task planning. Top 6 at the CerebralValley Gemini 3 Singapore Hackathon.

Sports Event Tracking Apps

Open source web applications for manual sports data collection across football, tennis, and floorball, built with Assoc. Prof John Komar at NTU. Features include event tagging, keyboard shortcuts, an expected goals model, and CSV/PDF export.


Writing

Alongside technical work, I write about football tactics and culture. Here are a few pieces I’m proud of:

  1. The Philosopher of Football — Arsene Wenger
  2. Stromae, Jacques Brel, and a Bridge Between Two Generations
  3. Sherlock — The Depiction of Deduction
  4. The Juego de Posición of La Masia
