Anuj Arora

Robotics Engineering student at the University of Michigan focused on autonomous systems, mobile robotics, and embedded software.

My experience spans autonomous-vehicle sensor development, ROS 2 navigation, open-source robotic prostheses, and embedded sensing systems. I am currently building an autonomous indoor service robot while expanding my work in SLAM, planning, controls, and robotics software architecture.

Featured work

Autonomous Indoor Service Robot

Developing a ROS 2 mobile-robot simulation for autonomous navigation in a custom multi-room office environment.

  • Integrated TurtleBot3, Gazebo Classic, RViz2, SLAM Toolbox, AMCL, and Nav2
  • Generated and saved 2D LiDAR occupancy maps
  • Implemented responsive WASD teleoperation with key-release stopping
  • Demonstrated localization and point-to-point autonomous navigation
  • Currently extending the system with C++ multi-waypoint missions, recovery handling, and repeated-trial evaluation

Open-Source Leg Research

Contributed to software and development infrastructure supporting the University of Michigan's Open-Source Leg, an open-source robotic prosthesis platform used to develop and test control algorithms on physical hardware.

  • Implemented Python-based software improvements for research workflows
  • Supported reproducible Raspberry Pi system configuration and developer onboarding
  • Contributed merged network-debugging and SMTP setup documentation
  • Collaborated through GitHub issues, pull requests, code review, and issue resolution
  • Validated BOM and CAD data during a SolidWorks-to-OnShape migration

Fabric Game Controller

Contributed to an embedded soft-sensing system that converts a fabric touch matrix into a responsive controller with real-time visual feedback.

  • Developed Python and MicroPython components for Raspberry Pi and microcontroller hardware
  • Worked with matrix scanning, serial communication, and OLED visualization
  • Supported low-latency state updates for a scalable 5x5 touch interface
