My Projects

Exoskeleton Machine Learning (Diffusion Policy)

Implemented an Action Diffusion imitation learning pipeline for lower-limb exoskeletons.

EKF SLAM from Scratch

Developed a feature-based EKF SLAM package in ROS2 for a TurtleBot3 using C++.

Robot Light Painter

Programmed a TurtleBot3 robot to create Light Paintings using a Motion Capture system for positional feedback.

Stereo Visual Odometry

Developed a visual odometry pipeline to estimate vehicle path using stereo image data using the KITTI dataset.

KUKA youBot Mobile Manipulator

Simulated a pick-and-place action using the KUKA youBot in CoppeliaSim.

Multi-Body Physics Engine

Simulated the multi-body physics of impacts with external forces for a dice-in-a-cup system.

Autonomous Mars Rover

Built a fully autonomous 50kg Mars Rover with a 6 DOF Robotic Arm for the University Rover Challenge (URC) 2022 competition.

Franka Plays Hangman

Using robot manipulation, admittance control, computer vision, and optical character recognition (OCR) to play word games with the Franka robot arm.

Decentralized Control of Swarm Robots

Implemented decentralized control algorithms for swarm robots inside a custom simulation environment.
