Bio
I graduated with a Bachelors degree in Computer Science from the National Institute of Technology, Durgapur, INDIA. Post graduation, I started working with Samsung and worked for a year at it’s Bangalore R&D center. I then graduated with a Master of Science degree in Robotics Engineering from the Worcester Polytechnic Institute where I worked in the WPI-CMU team on the Boston Dynamics’ ATLAS robot for the DARPA Robotics Challenge. I then spent almost 9 years in the R&D Organization at iRobot Corporation, after which I spent 2 years working at Berkshire Grey. I am currently working as a Principal Engineer at Motional.
My areas of interest are in mapping and navigation (SLAM, occupancy grid mapping, etc.), computer vision, robotics manipulation (motion planning, visual servoing, etc.), AI, and general software development. I have worked with robots across consumer, research, and industrial domains – from consumer platforms like iRobot’s Roomba, to research systems such as Kinova’s Jaco, Rethink’s Baxter, and Boston Dynamics’ Atlas, to industrial manipulators including the FANUC CRX series.
I have substantial experience in various languages which include C++, Python, and C (in order of expertise). I have worked with Java and Delphi (Object Pascal) in the past. I also have substantial experience in working with ROS, Eigen, Boost, Open3D, OpenCV, PCL, OpenRAVE, OpenGL, and other libraries.
