Safe RL navigation for autonomous mobile robots
A research system combining Soft Actor-Critic with a Control Barrier Function safety filter in a warehouse navigation environment with static and dynamic obstacles.
M.Tech Automation & Robotics at DIAT Pune. I work across robot navigation, safe reinforcement learning, computer vision and edge inference—with an engineering bias toward measurable behavior, failure analysis and reproducible systems.
A research system combining Soft Actor-Critic with a Control Barrier Function safety filter in a warehouse navigation environment with static and dynamic obstacles.
A real-time computer-vision inspection interface built around live detection, system telemetry, alerting and deployment-oriented model benchmarking.
Selected systems work spanning ROS 2 services/actions, unicycle control, LQR, manipulator dynamics, impedance control and simulation-oriented robotics software.
Continuous actions, off-policy sample reuse and entropy-regularized exploration for robot control.
To separate nominal learned behavior from an explicit safety constraint and log interventions.
Latency, runtime efficiency and model quantization matter when perception has to run near the machine.
I’m looking for engineering opportunities where robotics and AI are treated as systems problems—not just model demos.
