About me
Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have demonstrated proficiency in key areas such as motion planning, SLAM, computer vision, and machine learning. My experience at DRONES Lab, where I am currently a Graduate Student Researcher, has provided me with valuable insights into multi-robot collaboration and cutting-edge advancements in the field. Additionally, my role as a Robotics Engineer Intern at Hombot allowed me to contribute to the development of autonomous swarm robots and gain practical experience in motion planning and sensor integration.
One of my notable achievements includes leading a team in the development of autonomous robots for a restaurant, where I successfully implemented motion planning algorithms and contributed to the creation of a path planning algorithm for wheeled and quadruped robots. This project not only showcased my technical skills but also demonstrated my ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver innovative solutions.
In my tenure at Accenture Innovation Center as a Research and Development Engineer, I played a pivotal role in the creation of an occupancy grid map and network map using LIDAR and stereo camera data for warehouse ground vehicle robots. My contributions led to a 2x improvement in solve time for ground vehicles, and I was honored with the ACE (Accenture Celebrates Excellence) award for innovative solutions.
As an individual committed to continuous learning and innovation, I have actively participated in various robotic competitions, winning awards and recognition. My dedication to pushing the boundaries of material handling robotics is evident through my hands-on contributions and leadership as the Best Performer of the Month at Accenture.
I am excited about the opportunity to bring my technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and passion for robotics to a dynamic organization like yours. I am confident that my unique blend of academic knowledge and practical experience makes me a valuable asset to any project or team.
Thank you for taking time to go through my bio. Please reach out to me at allurisreegautham@gmail.com if you have any opportunities for me.
