Hey! I am Ranai srivastav and I am currently a student in the Masters of Robotic Systems Development program in the Robotic Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.
In robotics, my interests (in order of proficiency) lie in
| Subfield | Description | Project Example Link |
|---|---|---|
| Perception (Classical CV) | What is the robot seeing? | Project: Feature Tracking for VO using EKFs |
| Perception (Multi-modal fusion) | Can many sensors help the robot see better? | Work in Progress |
| Calibration, Localization, Mapping, State Estimation | Where is the robot and what is it experiencing? | Project: SLAM from scratch |
| Algorithm and ML Optimization for Edge Devices | How fast can the robot think? | Work at Aurora Flight Sciences in the Summer of 2025 |
| High-level Robot Behavior Planning | What should the robot do and in what order? | Project-Symbolic Planning |
| Multi-agent coordination | How can each robot accomplish its task? Can they work together? | Work in Progress |
