I was born in Surabaya, a metropolitan city in the province of East Java, Indonesia. Some people always comment and laugh when I introduce my self because I has long name. My mother told me that the name has a meaning. I don't understand the true meaning till teenage. Ok, let's me explain about that.
Catur means four. I am the fourth child. Four is the only number that has the same amount between characters and its value in the English language. I am expected to be consistent. [1]
Hilman means knowledge. I am expected to be a "hunter" of knowledge and pass it on.
Adritya taken from the name of an intelligent assistant when my mother learned in UPI Bandung, a big city in the province of West Java, Indonesia.
Haryo taken from Java language that means noble man. [2]
Bhakti taken from Indonesian that means respectful. [3]
and the last name, Baskoro also taken from Java language that means sunshine. [4]

In elementary school, my handwriting is very bad. I am annoyed and then tear it. So I don't focus on the lesson, but my focus is to have a neat lesson notes. I just want to know, how my handwriting can be neat but never think about get ranked in elementary school. so funny.
In junior high school, my senior saw my lesson notes and she said, "your handwriting so neatly". One day, my class held management elections and I was elected as secretary. Since that time, I realized that my handwriting was already neatly.
In another day, I ever made my Indonesian teacher angry. The cause is when she teaching, I made a big letter "LUIS FIGO" (because I was amazed seeing his free-kick at TV last night). Then she came to me and tore my paper. I was very scared. At the end of third grade, my grades short of expectations even though I attend course outside school.
In senior high school, me and my friends held an illegal football tournament after school. My position as a goalkeeper. We played not on grass, but in concrete field. As a result, sometimes my pants torn at the knee.
In the third grade, I chose natural science because I like counting (scientific experiment too). After graduation, I tried to take entrance exam in ITB. I chose mechanical engineering, engineering physics, and geophysics engineering, but it all wasn't sucessfull. Yeah so sad, but logic says, what happen if all of that are only till here?. Then I tried to other. SPMB 2005, I chose engineering physics and statistics in ITS. Finally, I was received in the first choice.
My interesting experience as an undergraduate student is practical work in aircraft industry, IAe, Bandung. I was placed in the interior cabin, especially in the noise damping material of CN235-220 MPA. One day, I ever took some pictures of the building and aircraft from a distance, and my camera directly checked by security officers when I entered the building. Then I was told to remove all of that. I was shocked and immediately delete it.
One day, I got inspiration from senior. He became runner-up in competition LPIK ITB 2008 with theme "Design Control Illumination of the Hybrid Solar System: Solid State and Fiber Solar Lighting". From all of that, I had idea to control of sun tracking movement with object solar panel and make it happen. My research area is about sun tracking system. My goal in this research is to contribute research method of sun tracking systems, both single and dual-axis type.
Keep writing, mas bro!
