@yashgovekar
Mechanical engineering undergraduate who engineered an autonomous agricultural robot at IIT Goa, improving navigation accuracy by 83%.
What I'm looking for
At IIT Goa, I engineered a full-stack autonomous agricultural robot from concept to deployment, handling mechanical design, fabrication, and embedded control programming.
I tested and calibrated the robot using FEA, motion-simulation platforms, and real field environments. This work improved navigation accuracy by 83% and operational efficiency.
As a Junior Electronics Engineer at Team Prometheus, I designed power, control, sensing, and communication circuit systems in KiCAD for a combat/robotics platform. I worked with mechanical and software teams to integrate the electronics into a competition-ready, reliability-tested system.
My projects include a tendon-driven continuum robot with Arduino closed-loop control and a co-developed sensor-fusion platform for biomass moisture and flow measurement. I’ve also implemented a dual-stage inverse-kinematics solver for a 2R robot, combining CCD with Levenberg-Marquardt optimization.
