Experience
Robotics System Integrator
Apr 2022 — Present
Built a large-scale distributed robot arm cluster for running experiments and autonomous/human data collection in parallel- Designed and developed tools which reduced downtime of systems and experiments by 90%. These tools also increased productivity and efficiency by 35%- Designed data transfer automation services to ensure a stable and secure pipeline for multi-step backup from a local machine to a AWS S3 Bucket via an EC2 instance. This pipeline has been used to move data over 5Tb+ so far- Ran large-scale data collection using methods like teleoperation, kinesthetic demonstration, and autonomous bin pick and place. Collected over demonstrations of data, see https://robopen.github.io/roboset/- Used wired/wireless network via IPv6 to create a virtual mesh network to share environments and files amongst different devices in a lab and across the country.
