Senior🎓
Top SchoolPrashant Ganesh is a research engineer with a decade of hands-on experience developing estimation, control, and sensor-fusion solutions for ground and aerial robots operating in GPS-denied environments. He leads multi-agent autonomy research at the University of Florida in partnership with AFRL, managing a $6M program and scaling lab funding and team capabilities while transitioning academic prototypes to DoD and industry partners. His technical strengths span EKF/particle filters, SLAM, Bayesian statistics, ROS, and rapid hardware-software integration—skills proven across academic labs, startups, and aerospace projects. Beyond technical execution, he has mentored dozens of students and cadets and repeatedly translated research into workshops and conference presentations, reflecting both practical impact and community leadership. An early background building flight simulators and control systems gives him an uncommon blend of avionics hardware experience alongside rigorous statistical modeling.
