About
I'm Sigit Dani Perkasa — an electrical engineering graduate from Universitas Airlangga who transitioned from pure EE into the intersection of software and hardware. My work spans AI agent orchestration, embedded firmware, computer vision, and renewable energy system design.
Currently I build autonomous agents and real-time dashboards (see Agent Office and Crisis Monitor), develop MPPT algorithms on STM32 hardware, and maintain a growing portfolio of IoT instrumentation projects — from water quality monitors to weather stations.
My most-cited work, a validated method for sizing standalone photovoltaic systems using peak sun hours, has earned 45 citations and underpins several of my subsequent applied projects in rural electrification and agricultural energy.
I'm most interested in the boundary where software meets the physical world — robots that see, agents that reason, and energy systems that adapt. I believe the best engineering happens when you understand the full stack from sensor to dashboard.
