3D LiDAR Data Processing & Segmentation

Machine Learning Research Intern at Indiana University (2026-06 – Present)

3D LiDAR Data Processing & Segmentation

• Built a custom dataset creation methodology by manually simulating 400+ fallen tree environments to capture complex 3D spatial features
• Extracted absolute positional coordinates from the simulated mesh for highly accurate target labels for training advanced segmentation algorithms

Data Science & Automation Intern at Ordnance Factory Badmal (2026-05 – 2026-06)

Automated Defect Detection Pipeline

• Designed an automated testing machine utilizing OpenCV and a high-resolution camera to extract the diameter of primer anvils with (<0.1mm) precision
• Replaced a manual measurement process previously requiring 2 human operators, reducing per-unit inspection time to under 5 seconds
• Accelerated testing throughput by 40X and eliminated human error across a daily production volume of 5,000+ ammunition components
