Mechatronics & Automation · Autonomous Systems · ROS 2 · Embedded Control · Robotic Perception
I am a Mechatronics & Automation undergraduate at VIT Chennai focused on robotics, embedded systems, and autonomous machines.
I like working across the complete robotics stack — from sensor wiring, microcontroller firmware and motor control to Raspberry Pi / Jetson integration, computer vision, ROS 2, navigation and system-level verification.
My main interests are:
- Autonomous mobile robots and aerial robotics
- ROS 2, navigation, SLAM and robot software architecture
- STM32 / Arduino firmware and real-time hardware control
- Raspberry Pi / Jetson hardware integration
- Robotic perception using cameras, ultrasonic sensing and ML
- Control systems, actuator control and sensor integration

Worked on the rover's embedded/electrical integration and hardware-facing software stack. The current system uses a Raspberry Pi with multiple hardware interfaces and sensors including GPS, IMU, CO₂, soil sensing, power monitoring and RS485 devices.
Stack: Raspberry Pi Python UART I2C SPI RS485 Sensors Embedded Systems
Edge-based robotic fruit inspection and sorting system built around a Raspberry Pi 5.
The system combines:
- YOLO-based fruit detection
- Camera-based external freshness / defect inspection
- Ultrasonic measurements for internal quality estimation
- XGBoost-based internal classification
- Encoder-based object tracking
- Servo-controlled sorting
- GPIO-triggered conveyor sensing
Stack: Raspberry Pi 5 Python OpenCV YOLO XGBoost Picamera2 GPIO Encoders Servo Control
Ongoing work on autonomous aerial robotics with emphasis on flight logic, embedded integration and higher-level autonomy.
Focus: ROS 2 Pixhawk Autonomous Navigation Control Perception
STM32F411-based embedded automation project developed using STM32Cube tooling and HAL firmware architecture.

I am working toward advanced robotics systems that combine:
Perception → State Estimation → Planning → Control → Embedded Execution
with a strong focus on reliable real-world hardware rather than simulation-only robotics.
