About me
My interest in robotics was sparked at the robotics club in my school, which was participated in the RoboCup Junior competition. Our team participated in the international finals in Hefei, China in 2015. Before starting in Lincoln I completed an integrated masters (MComp) degree in Computer Science at UEA. I was also the president of the Computer Science society at UEA from 2022-23.
I’m looking forward to learning under experienced teachers in Lincoln and studying for my PhD at UEA- I’m also looking forward to help introduce technologies to aid in labour shortages in the agricultural sector, and help build a better world in an ethical and sustainable way.
Outside of robotics I enjoy tinkering with servers on my personal homelab, and going for long walks in the Norfolk countryside.
MSc Project
Natural Language Understanding based on RAG towards a General-Purpose Service Robot
Making a robot capable of understanding commands (given by non-expert operators) requiring a wide range of different abilities and execute/respond according to its context, capabilities and knowledge about the workspace.
