Current Research Project

The project involves the development of electronic systems for magnetic field sensing using commercially available Hall sensor integrated circuits, along with the design of CMOS signal-conditioning integrated circuits for Hall-effect-based sensing applications.

As I begin my research journey at IIT Bombay, the work is expected to involve system-level design, circuit design, prototyping, testing, and validation of sensing solutions for target applications.

Autonomous Navigation and Safe Landing of an Aerial Vehicle in GPS-Denied Martian Environments

Journal of Field Robotics (Wiley)

This work presents a multi-sensor fusion framework for autonomous navigation and safe landing in GPS-denied Martian-analogue environments. The system integrates a stereo camera, LiDAR, and IMU on a low-power Raspberry Pi 5 and Pixhawk-based platform to perform real-time localization, environmental mapping, and landing-zone assessment. Stereo vision is used to identify safe landing regions, while LiDAR-assisted SLAM enables robust navigation in unknown terrain. The proposed framework provides a lightweight and scalable solution for future planetary exploration missions and autonomous aerial systems.

Future Goals

My long-term interests lie in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit design, sensor-interface electronics, and the development of intelligent electronic systems that bridge hardware, sensing, and real-world applications. Through my research at IIT Bombay, I aim to contribute to the design of reliable, low-power, and high-performance electronic systems while building a strong foundation for future research and innovation.
