Aman Kumar Singh

I am a graduate of the B.Tech–M.Tech (Dual) program in Civil Engineering (Geoinformatics) at IIT Kanpur. My work focuses on LiDAR-based 3D sensing systems, particularly motion-induced distortions in mobile laser scanning (MLS), combining geometric modeling, simulation-based validation, and sensor-aware analysis. This resulted in a publication in the ASCE Journal of Surveying Engineering. I have also worked on multi-sensor perception systems, including a Smart Visual Docking Guidance System (SVDGS) integrating LiDAR, camera, and thermal sensing. I was awarded the MAY Award for Engineering Excellence (2023–24), IIT Kanpur.
