Enhancing Robotic Perception and Adaptability through Sensor Fusion and Origami-Inspired Designs
Namai Chandra, Jaison Jose, Kavi Arya +1
Compact mobile robots must recover scene geometry under changing lighting and surface texture while working within tight payload and cost limits. We present a compact mobile robot…
From Sky to Soil: A Morphing Aerial-Ground Robot for Seed Deployment
Namai Chandra, Lining Yao
Aerial seed broadcasting can reach remote restoration sites, but provides limited control over seed placement within the soil. This paper presents a geometry-assisted, tri-function…
ActionGround: Training-Free Runtime Refinement of Frozen VLA Policies
Namai Chandra, Madhur Thareja, Shriram Damodaran +1
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models map visual observations and language instructions directly to robot actions, but they do not explicitly represent the phase structure of manipul…
PhysVLA: Towards Physically-Grounded VLA for Embodied Robotic Manipulation
Namai Chandra, Shriram Damodaran, Lin Wang
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models excel at mapping visual inputs and natural language instructions directly to robotic control policies. However, because they are trained primari…
Physics-Informed Policy Optimization via Analytic Dynamics Regularization
Namai Chandra, Liu Mohan, Zhihao Gu +1
Reinforcement learning (RL) has achieved strong performance in robotic control; however, state-of-the-art policy learning methods, such as actor-critic methods, still suffer from h…
Knots of Darkness in Atmospheric Turbulence
D. G. Pires, D. Tsvetkov, N. Chandra +1
Topology, which originated as a mathematical discipline, nowadays advances the understanding of many branches of science and technology from elementary particle physics and cosmolo…
