Worked in the Fleet Management System team to develop and improve sortation systems in warehouses. Consisting of a variety of AGVs and AMRs, running over 100 robots at the same time. Contributed to the C++ stack, as well as optimized the entire system and variety of challenging layouts (around 15 and achieved approx. 10% more output than desired) along with introducing completely new ideas into the system to enhance the overall productivity of the system.

Reshaped the society's landscape by driving unprecedented engagement and recognition. Orchestrated a series of dynamic workshops and competitions, resulting in a surge of college participation in robotics events. Secured additional funding and expanded the inventory, while effectively disseminating robotics knowledge to a diverse audience. A four-year journey of transformation and growth.

Initiated and led the successful development of Thapar University's first Rover (equipped with a robotic arm, soil analysis system with entire framework developed from scratch using ROS), prominently representing the institution at the prestigious International Rover Challenge (IRC'23). Spearheaded the entire project, securing necessary funding and assembling a skilled team. Led the design process from scratch, including custom circuitry and framework.

Spearheaded the entire project, securing necessary funding and assembling a skilled team. Led the design process from scratch, including custom circuitry and framework. Additionally, the rover was also capable of performing autonomous navigation and way point tracking using Intel Realsense D345. The rover consisted of three constant live feeds with three more switchable feeds to capture every angle of the rover and other systems. The rover had a teleoperation range of around 1 km and live video feed till around 450m with no disconnection.This rover along with a team of nine individuals participated in the International Rover Challenge'23. Where the team stood 6th internationally and bagged the "Emerging Team of the year award, IRC'23".The rover was named "Mandakini" and was developed by collaborative effort and dedication. Show less

Managed and lead various robotics projects and workshops. The workshops were related to ROS, basics of robotics and electronics. The projects included : self balancing robot, robotic arm, autonomous LiDAR based robot, soil analysis system. Additionally conducted and managed events within the college which included society fair and orientation of the society.

Part of the electronics team and I am currently involved in projects that require the integration of electronics, control systems, and ROS (Robot Operating System). Additionally, organized several workshops to disseminate knowledge to other members of the community.

I acquired knowledge and skills in multiple aspects of electronics, robotics, ROS and Linux, and effectively utilised them in the execution of projects.

Co-founded an Ed Tech robotics startup focused on popularizing robotics education through comprehensive and practical learning kits and courses. Bridging the gap between theory and application, empowering enthusiasts and professionals to excel in the rapidly advancing field of robotics.

Working in collaboration with a PhD scholar to develop an exoskeleton for lower limb assistance incorporating advanced robotics, biomechanics, and human-machine interaction principles. Currently developing an algorithm for control by using Model Predictive Control and Physics Informed Neural Networks on a developed testing rig with individual joint control.The lab facilitates a total of eight Qualisys motion tracker cameras and a force plate in the middle.

Developed a robot with outdoor autonomous capabilities by fusing point cloud data from an RGBD camera (Microsoft Kinect V2) and LiDAR (RPLiDARA2M12). The framework was developed from scratch using ROS.The robot is capable of performing fused SLAM (2D+3D), localization and point to point navigation (static as well as dynamic). The robot was developed by a small team in a short span of time. The overall developed model is robust and is to be further utilized in an ongoing project:… Show more Developed a robot with outdoor autonomous capabilities by fusing point cloud data from an RGBD camera (Microsoft Kinect V2) and LiDAR (RPLiDARA2M12).

Worked on implementing Reinforcement Learning (RL) techniques for autonomous point-to-point navigation in a dynamic and unknown environment. The primary objective was to develop an intelligent navigation system that optimizes efficiency and safety to ensure reliable performance in remote locations where conventional maps are unavailable. The overall model was developed on ROS framework and the model was trained and tested on Gazebo.
