I am a researcher interested in reliable 3D perception from LiDAR and multi-sensor systems. When a scanner moves, the point cloud it captures quietly bends and smears; I like working out exactly how that happens, and how to model and correct it so that machines can measure the real world with confidence.

I recently completed my B.Tech–M.Tech Dual Degree in Civil Engineering (Geoinformatics) at IIT Kanpur, advised by Prof. Bharat Lohani. My thesis modeled motion-induced distortions in mobile laser scanning, which led to a paper in the ASCE Journal of Surveying Engineering, selected as an Editor's Choice. I also worked with Prof. Gaurav Pandey (Texas A&M University) on a LiDAR, camera, and thermal sensing system that guides aircraft into their parking stands. I am a recipient of the MAY Award for Engineering Excellence at IIT Kanpur. You can find more in my CV.

I am applying to PhD programs for Fall 2027. Going forward, I want to build perception and mapping systems that stay accurate when sensors move and the world gets messy: motion-aware LiDAR mapping and SLAM, robust multi-sensor fusion (such as LiDAR and camera), and simulation-driven ways to test and trust 3D measurements for autonomous systems and digital twins.
