MR (ModulaR) Robot

Built a fleet of two line-following robots with custom 3D-printed pick-and-place mechanisms during the e-Yantra Robotics Competition 2021–22. Developed algorithms for grid-based path planning, mapping, fleet management, PID-based line following and manipulation in Elixir. Selected among the top 5 teams out of nearly 300.

First prize winning project for Mitsubishi America’s Rally-To-Tally Online Hackathon. Developed an autonomous solution for their problem statement of inventory management of large industrial steel pipes using computer vision and outdoor mobile robots. Demostrated the PoC with the help of a custom simulation of Husky robot in Gazebo with InfluxDB and Grafana for integration for the data visualization

Made during the e-yantra Robotics Competition 2020-21, Sahayak Bot was the first project that introduced me to simulation-based advanced robotics development using ROS & Gazebo. We focused on the developement of the autonomy stack of Sahayak Bot, a mobile manipulator, including navigation, SLAM, perception, manipulation & mission planning using ROS, Gazebo and Moveit!. Upon completition our implementation was selected among top 7 finalists out of almost 500 teams.

Made in collaboration with the Hatchnhack Makerspace in Delhi, we made a complete coffe table with a 12x12 LED Matrix inside for playing interactiveness and cool animations. The project used WS2812B LEDs with an ESP32 Dev Board at the heart for the controls

An open source project being developed as part of A.T.O.M Robotics Lab. The project is intended to work as a one-stop solution for easily deploying perception pipelines with common applications like object detection, image segmentation, image pre processing, etc. The project follows modular plugin-based architecture much like Nav2 in concept. The project is actively used in A.T.O.M’s in-house mobile robot - MR Robot

Gave a talk on how to set up and use Pi Clusters with a simple python example of calculating integrals with message passing between the different Raspberry Pi 3s

Showcased my internship project at Technoyantra, one of the early open-source demonstrations integrating ROS 2, Nav2, SLAM Toolbox, and Ignition Gazebo for the in-house AMR, IGT.

Showcased our project for the NASA SpaceROS Summer Sprint Challenge 2024, featuring custom Gazebo plugins for extraterrestrial simulations.
