[Engineering + AI] I've received Master's degree (advanced program) - Master of Artificial Intelligence (MAI) from Monash University, Australia.
Previously, I've actively contributed (CMOS Image Sensor SW team) at Samsung Research (Bangalore, INDIA) working on building cutting-edge mobile image sensors (such as industry-first 200 MP).
I've graduated from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, INDIA with a Bachelor of Technology (BTech - Double Major program) in Mechanical Engineering & Electrical Engineering (ME-EE).
During my senior year in the undergrad, I've also collaborated with Prof Pratap Tokekar (Department of Computer Science, University of Maryland, USA), who supervised me on the research topic of aerial robotic vision.
