Alex Tully

I design and build hardware.

I founded Tully Tech, which makes affordable assistive and privacy hardware. Since fall 2026 I’ve been Product Manager at Pando Surgical and a student at USC’s Iovine and Young Academy.

2022–2026

  1. 01AntiCamWearable privacy device Founder, designer and builder (Prototype)2023–2026
    The final AntiCam pin, version 2: a dark grey case with a clear acrylic window over the emitter module and its three-by-three grid of emitters
  2. 02Pando SurgicalMedtech startup Product Manager (Current role)2026
    Render of the LapRotator: a white attachment with three buttons on top, mounted on a laparoscope whose long shaft runs off to the lower left
  3. 03Low-cost prosthetic armProsthetic arm, research Research assistant (Working build)2024
    Render of the prosthetic arm with a translucent forearm: a stack of servos, gears and a circuit board visible inside, white fingers above
  4. 04Robotics, FIRST Tech ChallengeCompetition robots Captain (2025–26), operations lead (High school, 2022–26)2022–2026
    Front render of Monti: blue machined side plates with Voronoi cutouts, a turret launcher on top, and three purple and green balls held in the intake

Side projects (02)

  1. 01BloomNFC wearable, showcase PM and systems (Prototype stage)2026
    Drawing of the Bloom bracelet: a band of linked segments carrying five LEDs, three of them litA drawing of the idea, not the build: the bracelet lights one LED per connection, up to five. Photographs of the prototype are still to come.
  2. 02Robotic-arm flowerWearable control, robot arms Electrical and firmware (Concept to MVP)2026
    Drawing from above: four robot arms, each linked to a wristband, reach toward a central flower that is openingA drawing of the arrangement, not the build: four wristbands, four arms, one flower. The flower mechanism and the wireless link are still open, so neither is drawn.WristbandArmFlower

(What I do)

  1. (01)

    Product design and CAD

    I design products in CAD, from the first sketch to parts ready to print or cut.

    • SolidWorks
    • Fusion 360
    • Onshape
    • Blender

  2. (02)

    Embedded systems and firmware

    I wire sensors and microcontrollers and write the code that runs them, from a robot’s electrical system to a bracelet’s LEDs.

    • Arduino
    • Raspberry Pi
    • Python
    • C++
    • C

  3. (03)

    Fabrication and prototyping

    I build my own prototypes: printed, laser-cut and hand-soldered.

    • 3D printers
    • Laser cutters
    • Shop tools

  4. (04)

    Product management

    I’m Product Manager at Pando Surgical, where I built the team’s task system, and PM on Bloom at Terra Labs.

    • Notion
    • Google Sheets
    • Google Calendar

(About)

I founded Tully Tech, and in high school I captained FIRST Tech Challenge team Tritonics #17253; at USC I’m continuing robotics with Advanced Robotic Combat (ARC). My timeline, awards, tools and smaller pieces, such as Electric Road and IDEA Club, are on the about page.
