PaGERo is a geometry engine built for collision checking and simulate robot kinematics. It has a visualizer built using OpenGL and the code is written CUDA to allow collision and distance queries to be run as device function enabling them for parallel implementation of motion planning algorithms.
I developed a complete simulation stack for NOLON AI’s toilet-cleaning robot, building each component from the ground up. The stack integrates:
– Robot geometry with differential drive and joint trajectory controllers (URDF)
– Map generation and localization (SLAM Toolbox)
– Autonomous mobile base navigation (Nav2)
– Robotic arm manipulation (MoveIt2)
As the one of the core team leads, I oversaw subsystem integration, guided junior engineers, and ensured design-to-manufacturing consistency across the team. Our combined efforts led to multiple podium finishes at Formula Bharat, including 2nd place overall in 2024 and awards in Engineering Design and Battery Design.
I worked extensively on the chassis and aerodynamic package of our electric Formula Student car. My responsibilities spanned CAD design, structural and aerodynamic simulations, and hands-on manufacturing. I contributed to innovative solutions such as a powered diffuser with fan-assisted downforce and a dynamic drag reduction system (DRS), both validated through CFD and track data, resulting in measurable lap-time and stability improvements.
