Experience
Robotics Research Engineer
Oct 2024 — Present · San Jose, CA, US
Embodied AI and Autonomous Driving ResearchResearching long horizon task demonstrations using abstract language commands for a Hello Robot Stretch 3 mobile manipulator. The target demographics include household, assistive and warehouse robotsExploring the utility of LLMs for Autonomous Driving through the creation of open vocabulary planner methods that take in tokenized inputs for cameras and Lidar sensors around the car to dynamically optimize car\'s trajectory in the presence of complex objects in complicated real-world driving scenariosDeveloped ROS2 wrappers to integrate open vocabulary perception models to the Autonomous Driving stack. This was further utilized to develop inferable behaviors on complex driving scenarios such as path replanning during road closure, following construction worker\'s instructions on road etc
