Profile

Sensor fusion is the art of extracting accurate state information from noisy data of heterogeneous set of

sensors. I am developing advanced sensor fusion methods on real-time embedded systems. Sensor fusion is

commonly tackled using advanced signal processing, estimation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.

The challenge becomes more complex when sensor fusion methods are to be implemented on limited

resources embedded computing platforms such as FPGAs or microcontrollers. Some sensors require extremely

high-rate processing such as GPS raw signals, inertial measurement units (IMU), Vision, and Radar/LiDAR

sensors. Therefore, the simultaneous processing of heterogeneous high-rate streams of noisy sensor

measurements on limited resources embedded computing systems under hard real-time constraints is the

core profile of my research. I am teaching courses related to microprocessor-based systems, embedded

systems, signal processing, estimation, and machine learning. I believe in learning by doing. Practical

experience through projects and labs are basic aspect of my teaching methodology.
