About

Greetings! I am currently a final year undergraduate student at the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at the Indian Institute of Information Technology , Allahabad. Working as a researcher at the Center of Intelligent Robotics, I’ve led and contributed to multiple robotics projects including a 4 wheel human following robot integrated with technologies like 3D LiDAR based SLAM, autonomous navigation, GPS based navigation. I am also leading the software development on a US NSF-DST granted project for building an autonomous vehicle capable of navigating through unstructured and heterogenous environments in urban India. I thrive at the intersection of robotics research and practical engineering, working with ROS, computer vision and reinforcement learning. Let’s connect if you’re working in robotics and their real world applications!
