Hardik Solanki

I’m Hardik Solanki, an AR Developer and Researcher currently working at IIT Delhi, where I design and implement immersive AR applications that make learning fun and interactive for children. My work spans educational AR experiences such as OCR-based word learning, color mixing, and yoga apps—all created to enhance engagement, creativity, and real-world understanding.

With a B.Tech in Computer Science specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from Sushant University, I bring a strong technical foundation and a creative mindset to everything I build. I’ve previously worked at Zscaler as a Backend Drupal Developer Intern and at XRDigitech Global as an AR/Game Developer Intern, gaining hands-on experience in AR game mechanics, Unity 3D, and interactive app development.

I’m passionate about blending technology and imagination to craft AR solutions that bridge digital experiences with human learning. Beyond work, I love experimenting with Unity, Unreal Engine, and WebGL to explore the next frontier of interactive storytelling.
