- Developed end-to-end autonomy pipeline for an indoor assistance robot, enabling autonomous object fetch-and-retrieval- Successfully deployed the robot in a Pittsburgh care facility; our work was featured by CMU’s School of Computer Science

- First employee at the company. Contributed to the robotics software development of a 32-DoF mobile manipulator robot- Set up initial robotics software infrastructure (simulator, visualizer, debugging tools) and developed early versions of various subsystems- Worked on Visual SLAM algorithms for 3D Indoor Navigation, Object Manipulation, voice-enabled HRI and high-level robot task planning using LLMs.

- Developed systems-level algorithms for UAVs and their dependent sub-systems, including Asteria’s Ground Control Software, Antenna Tracking system and Electro-Optical/ Thermal-Imaging cameras. - Integrated the software, hardware and robotics aspects of Asteria’s UAV products such as micro-quadcopters, octa-copters and hybrid VTOLs. - Worked on development of organisation-level processes for enabling smoother transition of UAV products from R&D stage to Production. - Led investigation of Non-Conformances in UAV Products/ Processes that occurred across the organisation at different stages of a product’s life cycle (R&D, PoC, Production, Delivery). This involved - 1. Applying various RRCA approaches to investigate and identify root causes and corrective actions.2. Collaborating with multiple engineering teams (R&D, Business Development, Production, Quality Assurance, Customer Support, Supply Chain) as well as component vendors.

- Conducted research on exoskeletons for assistance during strenuous lifting and locomotion tasks, intending to reduce overall metabolic cost of leg muscles in such activities. - I programmed the Controls System and developed the Electronics and System Architectures of the robot. I also designed several parts of the robot using CAD.Technology Stack:Programming Languages: Python, C++Software: MATLAB, Simulink, SolidWorks, OpenSimHardware: High Precision IMUs, Maxon Speed & Positioning Controllers, Maxon BLDC Motors, RaspberryPi

- SUN Mobility is creating Battery Swapping Infrastructure to accelerate mass EV adoption in India.- I was part of the Battery Swapping Stations team, the core engineering team of the company. - As a Systems Engineer, I was responsible for creating the systems level architecture of unique battery charging concepts and integrating their various mechanical, electrical and software aspects into our charging stations. Some of the concepts I worked on and successfully implemented into our charging stations were:1. Automated System for Multiple Battery Pack Charging with a Single Charger2. Bidirectional Charging System for charging from and discharging back to power grid (V2G)3. Created a GUI-based software tool to simulate our chargers as per on-field conditions for engineering development purposes. Technology Stack used during internship: Programming Languages: Python, C++Communication Protocols: CAN Protocol, RS-485 ProtocolHardware: High Voltage Lithium-Ion BPs, EV ChargersKey Knowledge Areas: Battery Technology, Charging Technology for EVs, Systems Integration
