HSM ARIES / THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE ROVER
Mukul Bimbra
Software & Perception Engineer
- Software & Autonomy
On the team
Mukul works on the perception problems between a sensor reading and a usable view of the terrain. His Software & Autonomy responsibilities include point-cloud filtering, mapping and obstacle-avoidance work in ROS 2. Those tasks help the navigation system distinguish useful structure from noisy measurements.
He came to robotics after three years at Pearce Services, where his work ranged from telecom design and costing to quality control and project responsibility. His earlier robotic-arm project included designing a gripper for a mecanum-wheel platform. That background gives him experience with both the geometry of a mechanism and the information needed to operate it.
