+<p>Hi!</p>

+<p>My name is Navan Chauhan. I dabble in the mysterious dark arts of programming and in-silico drug discovery. I am proficient in Python and ocassionaly dabble in C++/C, Swift, React Native, and Go. I only use vanilla JS for actual web based stuff because I don't want to spend time debugging yarn/npm installs faililng.</p>

+<h2>Ideas</h2>
+
+<h3>Safety Checklist for CUBRT</h3>
+
+<p>Would be nice to have an AR app/website that goes through all the safety checklists on our cars, so we never have to see another loose fuel line blow up the entire car. </p>
+
+<p>Possible solution: Add a fiduciary marker under the hood of the car and use it to highlight areas which need to be checked, or multiple markers which are activated in a particular order and show up as disabled until you complete the previous step.</p>
+
+<h3>App Clips</h3>
+
+<p>Although App Clips on iOS have limited capabilities available to them, ARKit is one of them. This means, a QR code / NFC trigger can be used to launch a mini ARKit based App Clip.</p>
+
+<h3>Non-AR Smart Glasses</h3>
+
+<p>Not every pair of smart glasses need to have AR based surface tracking / SLAM, to display stuff. Just a simple display which can overlay elements on the real world should be capable of displaying tons of data</p>

+<p>Idea dumps and interesting projects found on the web. I also try to include archived links through archive.org and a self-hosted archive in-case something disappers. Most of the idea dumps are generated from an OCR scan of my diary page.

-<p>Hopefully these grow with time, I already have tons of drafts ready. As I am currently studying in school, this allows me to experiment in Physics, Chemistry and Computer Science. I have started using LaTeX now ;)</p>
+<p>I have a huge backlog of actual articles waiting to be published. The following is just a list of pre-prints I did not find worthy of actual publications even though some journals still send me regular invites to publish these. </p>
