Subhadeep Koley

A curious student; an aspiring roboticist

Hi!, I’m Subhadeep, a Mechanical Engineering senior at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur. You will find my resume here.

What am I passionate about?

I’ve always been interested in robotics and large systems with lots of moving parts. So far, I’ve taken up every opportunity that have come my way and have worked on a number of diverse research problems. Recently, I’ve taken a keen interest in Reinforcement Learning and the exciting world of opportunities it has opened up for enhancing robotic control and decision making.

Beyond my passion for robots, I’m a film enthusiast. My fascination with robotics may well be rooted in that pivotal moment when I first experienced Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner 1982. Additionally, I have a deep appreciation for Alt Rock and Hip Hop music, and on lazy Sunday afternoons, you can often find me strumming a Pink Floyd or Guns N’ Roses tune on my guitar.

A semi-professional summary

Details regarding my experiences are available in my resume. Here’s a brief summary:

  • I have 1.5 years of research experience in the fields of robotics and UAVs.

  • I successfully crafted a ROS framework for a decentralised drone swarm, enabling both leader-follower mode and independent missions. This framework powered the deployment of a swarm of five drones.

  • As a key contributor to the Swarm Project at SPIN Lab, IIT Kanpur, I engineered essential network monitoring tools and ROS-based congestion control solutions for dynamic mesh networks.

  • Additionally, my co-authorship on a paper addressing the thermal runaway of Lithium-ion batteries earned the prestigious Best Paper Award at a prominent conference.

  • Currently, I am leading a talented team of four students in the development of an innovative swash plate-less helicopter.
