Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRishabh Singh is a software developer and maintainer for ArduPilot with seven years of experience focused on autonomous robotics, particularly obstacle avoidance, stereo vision, precision landing, and 3-D path planning. Based in Delhi, he combines embedded systems engineering with backend development, adding sensor drivers and adapting flight control features across ArduPlane, ArduCopter, ArduRover and ArduSub. As a project maintainer he drives Obstacle Avoidance and Precision Landing for ArduCopter/ArduRover and coordinates partner integrations, supporting companies worldwide on MAVLink and companion-computer workflows. His open-source contributions include technical writing for the high-visibility ArduPilot wiki and hands-on code that integrates RealSense and other lidars, showing attention to both developer UX and low-level hardware interfaces. Notably, he improved multirotor precision-landing through Google Summer of Code work and routinely bridges algorithmic research (stereo/vision-based planning) with production-grade flight software.
