About
Roboticist/Deep Learning researcher
Autonomous Robots | Computer Vision | Deep Learning | Structured Light
I am Machine Learning researcher working on multi-cam multi-task learning models. I am a passionate roboticist on a quest to find newer and better ways to build robots that will help humans automate dangerous, mundane and tedius tasks. I currently work in the autonomous driving perception team at Lucid motors. I have previously worked at Tesla autopilot and a robot barista startup, Nourish.
