03 PROJECTS
01 / EdgeMesh AI

Distributed Edge Inference Mesh

Qualcomm Hackathon
Qualcomm Selects
Hardware Ships
Microsoft Store

Qualcomm Hackathon @ Columbia UniversitySelected by Qualcomm for Microsoft Store publication. Loaner hardware shipped, developer advocates assigned.

Any device joins a compute mesh, auto-discovers peers via UDP broadcast, and routes AI inference to the optimal device based on hardware capabilities. A 14B param model: ~30s on laptop CPU, ~7s on Snapdragon NPU. EdgeMesh makes that routing automatic.

Rahil's Role

Owned core orchestration: QAI Hub integration (4 REST endpoints), routing logic, cost estimation engine, LLM_GENERATE/IMAGE_GENERATE task handlers, and device mesh deployment across all 4 worker devices.

Real-Time Collaborative Music Engine

You should actually launch this.

Gemini 3 NYC Hackathon (Cerebral Valley / Google DeepMind)Top 6 Finalist out of 58 teams

Audience joins a room via QR code, picks a musical role, and their collective inputs are synthesized by Gemini 2.5 Flash into evolving prompts feeding Google Lyria RealTime for a continuous, never-repeating audio stream. No DJ, no setlist. The crowd composes music that never existed before.

Rahil's Role

Owned lyria_service.py: full Lyria RealTime WebSocket client, session management, audio streaming pipeline (binary WebSocket frames fanned out to all room participants).

03 / MarketPulse AI

Real-Time Financial News Q&A

Your latency is production-grade; now make the dataset 1,000x bigger.
0.1-0.3s CACHED // 1.5-3s COLD // <20ms FAISS

HackWithNewYork @ Microsoft NYCRanked among top teams

Pathway streams live financial headlines into a continuously-updated FAISS vector index the moment they land. Users ask "Why is TSLA spiking right now?" and get a sub-4-second answer citing the bulletin that arrived 30 seconds ago. Every Q&A pair is hashed and logged on Sui blockchain for audit.

Rahil's Role

Built the streaming RAG pipeline with Pathway, FAISS vector indexing, and the Sui blockchain audit trail integration.
