Welcome to my digital abode, where I fuse the realms of robotics, software engineering, and innovation. Here's a sneak peek into my world!
I'm Atreya Bhat, a Robotics Engineer on a mission to unlock the potential of intelligent machines. What draws me to robotics? It's the perfect blend of diverse skills and the exhilaration of seeing ideas come to life!
With a background from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) and hands-on experience from leading labs, I've delved into the intersections of planning, control, learning, and vision-based manipulation.
- At WPI's Manipulation & Environmental Robotics Lab, I'm at the forefront of developing cutting-edge solutions for robot scrap cutting. I am developing active vision algorithms both classical and based on Deep reinforcement learning to obtain multiple viewpoints for feature reconstruction to aid in the next step of oxy-acetylene cutting. Mentored by Prof. Berk Calli
- At Bosch, I kicked off with ECU Software Integration and later transitioned to the role of ECU Production Coordinator. My journey involved collaborating across teams to implement and test cybersecurity features for ECUs.
- My stint at ARTPARK, Indian Institute of Science focused on Localization and Sensor Fusion.
- Exploring reinforcement learning applications in manipulation for adaptive behavior.
- Diving deeper into computer vision and deep learning.

When not immersed in the world of robotics, I enjoy:
- 🚴♂️ Exploring new trails on my bike
- 📚 Getting lost in a good book
- ✨ Stargazing and Astrophotography
