Shrawan Kumbhar
Undergrad ENTC @ VIIT, Pune
I am a dedicated Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering undergraduate at Vishwakarma Institute of Information Technology, Pune. My primary interests lie in the fields of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR), Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), and Human-Computer Interaction. Beyond the classroom, I have developed technical proficiency in programming languages like Python and C++, as well as hardware tools such as ROS2 and KiCad. My leadership experience as an Electronics Member of the VIIT Robotics Club(VRC) allowed me to compete nationally in the DD Robocon Competition, where our team achieved a ranking within the top AIR 15.
