Hi, I'm Suman Raj Gowda

Building multi-robot systems and vision-guided aerial autonomy.

About me

  • M.S. in Robotics & Autonomous Systems at the University at Buffalo, graduating August 2026
  • Thesis (ADAMS Lab): decentralized multi-robot cooperative transport (R2P2) and vision-based drone-to-drone tracking
  • Graduate Robotics Assistant (DREAM Lab): running hands-on ROS 2 workshops for undergraduates
  • Mechanical engineering background (ANSYS structural analysis), now focused on autonomy, controls, and perception
  • Open to new-grad robotics roles (2026) and Winter 2027 internships
