Final-year robotics engineer, moving up the stack from machines to the AI and software that run them.
I'm finishing a B.Tech in Robotics & Automation at Symbiosis Institute of Technology, Pune (2023–2027), with a diploma in business administration from SIBM Pune on the side. Since September 2024 I've been a research assistant working across machine learning, autonomous robotics and computer vision, including an IoT-enabled autonomous mobile robot, a multimodal RGB-thermal search-and-rescue system and a published ML model for credit-card reward personalisation. The through-line is systems: a robot is a sensing-and-decision pipeline, and a model is only useful inside a system that feeds and checks it. That's where I'm heading: AI and software systems that hold up outside a notebook.
- 🔭 Currently working on: a multimodal RGB-thermal search-and-rescue scanner (Sentinel) and an IoT-enabled autonomous mobile robot (autonomous-bot)
- 💡 Interested in: computer vision, embedded systems, applied AI
- 💬 Ask me about: YOLO pipelines, ROS 2 and Nav2, sensor fusion, RAG systems, robot swarms
- 🧑 Pronouns: he/him
- ☕ Fun fact: coffee nerd
