As the Captain of the Autonomous Robosub team at iRobotics, I led the revitalization of a 15-person robotics submarine team competing in the RobotNation Robosub competition—an autonomous underwater robotics challenge involving complex underwater tasks.
Key accomplishments include:
• Modular Design Implementation: Introduced a modular design approach that reduced the submarine's weight by 47%, improved heat dissipation, and made it highly serviceable/debuggable
• Debugging old 2 year old PCB from scratch, identified 4 redundant parts and replaced them to make an efficient and modular PCB design
•Facilitated a remote thruster control pipeline from Nvidia Jetson using ROS, Cube controller and VNC viewer
