TODO: Current Position | Organization

I am a TODO: current role at TODO: organization. I completed my Dual Degree (B.Tech – M.Tech) in Aerospace Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur. My research interests lie in vision-based navigation of autonomous vehicles, swarm robotics, and underwater robotics.

During my time at IIT Kanpur, I was part of the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle team (AUV-IITK), where we built two fully-functional underwater vehicles and finished first runners-up at the national level. I worked on vehicle design and fabrication, and on system identification through underwater dynamics simulation, which we presented at the IEEE/OES AUV Symposium 2018 in Porto, Portugal.

TODO: One or two sentences on what you are working on now or looking for.
