About

MY BACKGROUND

Hi, I’m Aravind Prakash Senthil, a robotics engineer passionate about building real-time perception systems that fuse intelligent vision with autonomous control. My background spans computer vision, machine learning, and controls, , with a strong focus on innovating and deploying robot perception strategies in real time.

​

I developed a real-time 6D pose tracking pipeline using 2D Gaussian Splatting, achieving 78% ADD recall without any training data. My work also includes vision-based robotic manipulation, autonomous navigation in Gazebo, AlexNet-based drone obstacle avoidance, snake robot simulations in ROS, and multi-robot warehouse systems with 100% collision-free planning.

​

As part of Team Torpedo (BAJA SAE), I led the brake subsystem and fabrication efforts, gaining valuable hands-on engineering experience in dynamic team environments.

​

Outside robotics, I’m passionate about photography.
