About
Surendar Ganesan is a leading researcher in the intersection of drone technology and environmental sustainability, with a primary focus on developing unmanned aerial systems for ecological monitoring and remediation. His most impactful work, the "Development of 3D-printed floating Quadrotor for collection of algae in remote water bodies" (2019, 22 citations), introduces a novel, cost-effective approach to harmful algal bloom management. By designing a lightweight, 3D-printed quadrotor capable of both flight and water landing, Ganesan enables autonomous algae collection in hard-to-reach aquatic environments, addressing a critical gap in water quality management. This innovation not only reduces reliance on expensive, manned operations but also demonstrates the potential of additive manufacturing in rapid prototyping of specialized drones. With 22 citations, this paper has become a foundational reference for researchers exploring drone-based environmental sampling. Ganesan’s work is notable for its practical, scalable solutions, merging robotics, 3D printing, and environmental engineering to tackle real-world ecological challenges.
