Abhinav Kunapareddy is a technical lead manager with 11 years of robotics and autonomy experience, currently leading planning efforts at Cyngn from Sunnyvale. He has a strong background in vision-based and bio-inspired control systems, with hands-on roles in motion and path planning for autonomous vehicles at Autel Robotics and ROBOTWITS (acquired by Waymo). Trained in mechanical engineering at IIT Madras and robotics at Johns Hopkins, he pairs academic rigor with practical deployment experience—from MPC for underactuated marine vehicles to real-time vision systems using OpenCV. Known for translating research into production, he has moved between startups and corporate research, building robust planning stacks and decision-making modules for real-world platforms. Beyond core autonomy, he brings niche expertise in estimating environmental parameters for control and in optimizing computational pipelines for real-time operation.
