Adarsh Karan

I hail from the city of Coimbatore, often referred to as the 'Manchester of South India.’ I've since found my way to the vibrant city of Manchester, UK. ​My academic foundation lies in a 4-year Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) degree. This naturally led me down the fascinating path of Robotics, a field where creativity meets engineering prowess. 

I'm a self-motivated individual, brimming with enthusiasm and a thirst for knowledge. My confidence stems from a deep desire to make a positive impact through my work. This aligns perfectly with the philosophy of,

"Live a Life Worth Telling"

For me, this translates into a relentless pursuit of self-improvement by expanding my skillset in Robotics to develop Robots that solve real-world problems and make a positive impact.

Driven by a passion for developing intelligent and adaptable robots that seamlessly interact with the real world, I leverage my expertise in ROS, control theory, and hardware integration. My focus lies in the exciting fields of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), particularly in navigating complex environments using SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) techniques. This fascination extends to exploration tasks, where robots can autonomously map and interact with unknown surroundings.
