Piyush Khandelwal
Ph.D. Alumni
Piyush is interested in the practical application of artificial intelligence techniques in the domain of robotics. He has taken up the perception challenge for the RoboCup Standard Platform League. His research has also led him to autonomous vehicles, and he currently teaches an FRI class on this subject. He is planning on continuing his research on multi-robot systems. In his spare time he enjoys playing racquetball, biking, and following politics.
