  Robot Operating System (ROS) Developer

  As a part of a team of highly motivated and talented individuals, I worked on recreating the Martian environment and terrain in order to simulate and control rovers in the same. The goal of the project was to develop a platform using the ROS middleware that enables us to simulate, test and analyse the performance of different rover designs in Martian conditions.

  The ePlane Company

  Apr 2022 - now

  At The ePlane Company, I've been deeply involved in highly relevant aerial robotics research and product development. The following are my major contributions at ePlane so far:- I've developed a vision-centric Precision Landing algorithm for UAVs from the ground up incorporating Perception, State Estimation, and Motion Planning.- Additionally, I've developed a convex optimization-based trajectory planning algorithm for generating jerk-minimal and time-optimal trajectories for UAVs. - I'm currently leading the development of a comprehensive uncertainty-aware Motion Planning framework: a critical piece in the autonomy stack which will pave the way for autonomous mission planning and BVLOS operations for UAVs.
