High School Student Aditya’s Research on Soft Continuum Robot to present at the MIT Undergraduate Research Conference (MIT URTC)

High School Student Researcher Aditya on Kinematic Controller of Soft Continuum Robot to present at the MIT Undergraduate Research Technology Conference (MIT URTC) - CCIR

Aditya Singh is a high school student from Fremont, California, and a CCIR alumnus. He has a strong passion for programming, robotics, and computer science.

Aditya has built and programmed LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robots with specialised attachments. He also founded his own FIRST LEGO League team. In addition, he helped design and build his FIRST Tech Challenge team.

Aditya has also gained practical experience through internships and computer science competitions, including the USA Computing Olympiad (USACO). During his most recent internship at Big Binary, he worked as a software engineer. There, he gained experience developing software solutions for business needs.

Aditya’s Research on Soft Continuum Robots

As part of CCIR’s Cambridge Future Scholar Research Programme, Aditya collaborated with another student, Anirudh, on a robotics research project.

Their paper was titled “Kinematic Controller of a Soft Continuum Robot Using Learned Forward Models.” The project explored how learned forward models could help control a soft continuum robot.

Their professor mentor praised their work and considered the paper to be of graduate-level quality.

Research Accepted at MIT URTC

Aditya’s research paper was accepted for oral presentation at the MIT Undergraduate Research Technology Conference (MIT URTC).

The conference showcases research in engineering and technology. It gives student researchers a platform to share their work and discuss new developments in these fields.

This acceptance marks an important milestone in Aditya’s research journey. Congratulations to Aditya and his research collaborator on this achievement!
