Tanmay Dokania

Hey! I am a second-year PhD student in Robotics at Aerospace Robotics Lab, Georgia Institute of Technology. I completed my Bachelors (B.Tech.) in Electrical Engineering, with honours at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay where I was honored with the Insitute Silver Medal for achieving Department Rank 1.

I like math. My research interests lies in control of robotic systems under uncertainty and faults. I am inclined for the incorporation of ideas from geometry for the design of controllers and estimators which are safe, scalable and efficient.

During my undergrad, I have been fortunate enough to collaborate with Prof. Ravi Banavar on the control of nonholonomic agents using ideas from geometry, with Prof. Florian Shkurti on formulating safety guarantees for imitation learning, and with Prof. Dwaipayan Mukherjee on formation control for collision avoidance based on bearing measurements.

Besides my academic pursuits, I find pleasure in playing the guitar and singing. From time to time, I share my musical videos on YouTube.
