Robot software architecture intern focused on ROS 2 development - namely LifecycleNodes.ROS 2 open-source contributions:- https://github.com/ros2/rclcpp/issues/2212- https://github.com/ros2/rclcpp/issues/2213

I designed and led software projects for research on applying augmented reality to socially assistive robots, namely in kinesthetic learning applications. I mentored high school, undergraduate, and master's students (26 in total) many of whom are first- and/or co-authors on papers with me - they first authored 7 papers, won 7 UG research awards, and received 2 conference best paper runner ups. I also co-authored grant proposal (~$1,55m in awarded funding) and co-organized the VAM-HRI workshop for 3 years (100+ attendees).Github: https://github.com/tgroechelGoogle scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=8I_i48IAAAAJ&hl=enResearch Website: https://tgroechel.github.io/

Focused on robot behavior-based control (C++)

I worked on iterative closest point (ICP) algorithms for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). Also worked on a loop-closure algorithm.Lab's website: http://progress.eecs.umich.edu/
