Hello · Assalamu Alaikum · नमस्ते · नमस्कार — I'm Gaus, a Robotics Software Engineer finishing an MSc in Human & Biological Robotics at Imperial College London (Sep 2026, predicted Distinction). I build the layer where perception turns into action: vision-language-action policies, deep RL controllers and real-time teleoperation on real arms. The path here ran through a CanSat launch, an atmospheric LiDAR lab at ISRO, a satellite-surveillance model at IIT Bombay, a VLA benchmarking pipeline at Huawei R&D UK, two Smart India Hackathon wins and three German patents — and it started in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, India, where I graduated Rank #1 in my department.
