I’m Sanjith Udupa, an EECS (6-5) major at MIT interested in AI, Autonomous Vehicles, Robotics, and the applications of Computer Science. I was the software team lead of my F.I.R.S.T Robotics competition team, Frog Force, where I managed a team of 15 students to write high performance software to precisely navigate a 125lb robot at 18’ per second. I teach programming in my community and in inner-city Detroit, having helped form over 90 robotics teams in the city through the Motor City Alliance, an organization I helped start. In 2023, I won the FIRST Dean’s List Award, an award only 20 out of around 300,000 students win each year. I really enjoy research, and have interned at the Connected and Autonomous Robotics lab at the University of Delaware for two years, publishing a paper as first author in the IEEE Mobility conference in the Spring of 2023. I have a passion for learning and trying new things and have dozens of open source projects on my GitHub, ranging from mobile apps to websites. As an aspiring entrepreneur, I earn money from some my side projects, through freelancing, and teaching on my YouTube channel
