About Me: He is a faculty in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, IIT (ISM) Dhanbad. He has over 15 years of experience teaching Robotics, Automation, and CAD. He did his PhD in 2016 from IIT Delhi, specializing in Force Control of Industrial Robots. He did his Master's in Mechanical Engineering (Design) from BIT Mesra, Ranchi, in 2006, where he worked on Biped Robots. He completed his UG in Marine Engineering from MERI, Kolkata, in 1999 and worked with Anglo-Eastern Ship Management, Hong Kong, for four years as a Mercantile Marine Engineer. He has sailed across the globe on-board ships to different countries and acquired expertise in various areas of mechanical engineering. He has published in various peer-reviewed journals and conferences and has co-authored the textbooks on Computer Graphics published by McGraw Hill, New Delhi, in 2008, and on Vision Based Identification and Force Control of Industrial Robots, published by Springer Verlag, Singapore, in 2022. Currently, he is also the founder and director of his company, ADUZA Robotics and Automation Pvt. Ltd., where he makes his robots for academic and research purposes and provides consultancy to various industries in robotics and automation. He is handling projects worth more than 3.5 Crores on Robotics funded by the defence, the Government of India, and different industries. His NPTEL course, Industrial Robotics: Theories for Implementation, and Collaborative Robots (COBOTS): Theory and Practice, has gained quite a popularity among UG/PG, PhD students, and Industry personnel using Industrial Robots.
