Research Interests
  • My current research interest is to bring the robots out of the labs and make them capable of performing the manipulation tasks in a robust and intelligent way. Robots should not scare or hesitate to interact with the environment :-) ​
  • Navigation and manipulation in marine environment using unmanned surface vessels to perform the task such as environmental monitoring and autonomous surveillance for maritime security, rescue operations and for the irregular activity detection of vessels around ports.
