About
Smruthi Mukund is a robotics researcher whose work centers on autonomous navigation, sensor fusion, and intelligent obstacle avoidance. Her most cited paper, “Design of an Autonomous Mobile Robot based on the Sensor Data Fusion of Lidar 360, Ultrasonic sensor and Wheel Speed Encoder” (2019, 23 citations), makes a significant contribution to improving the efficiency and reliability of mobile robot navigation. In this work, Mukund addresses a critical challenge in robotics: the need for highly accurate and robust sensing for path planning. By integrating data from Lidar, ultrasonic sensors, and wheel encoders, she demonstrates a practical approach to sensor fusion that enhances obstacle detection and real-time decision-making. This research is foundational for developing more autonomous and responsive robots capable of operating in complex, dynamic environments. Mukund’s work is particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to understand how multi-sensor integration can overcome the limitations of individual sensors, paving the way for safer and more efficient autonomous systems. Her contributions are shaping the next generation of mobile robotics, with implications for industrial automation, service robots, and autonomous vehicles.
