| permalink | /about/ |
I’m Shubham Saboo, a budding Robotics Engineer specializing in Field Robotics, UAV Autonomy, and Perception Systems. I’m currently pursuing my Master of Science in Robotics (MRSD) at Carnegie Mellon University, where I focus on building robots that operate reliably in challenging real-world environments.
My journey began with hands-on drone development during my undergraduate years, eventually leading me to work as a UAV Systems Engineer at F-drones. There, I contributed to the development of long-range autonomous delivery aircraft, designed computer-vision landing systems, and optimized flight controls for offshore operations.
I’m passionate about:
- Autonomy for Aerial and Ground Robots
- Motion Planning & Controls
- Computer Vision for Robotics
- System Integration & Field Deployment
- Energy & Performance Modeling of UAVs
Robotics, for me, is not just about algorithms — it’s about building systems that work, even in imperfect conditions. My goal is to engineer autonomous systems that are safe, reliable, and impactful.
I want to create robotic systems that extend human capabilities — delivering supplies across oceans, navigating dangerous terrains, and operating where humans can’t.
At CMU, I’m working toward becoming a systems-oriented roboticist who can take a robot from concept → simulation → hardware → real-world deployment.
When I’m not debugging flight controllers or tuning PID loops, I enjoy:
- Writing and sharing my engineering journey
- Learning about electric aircraft & UAM
- Exploring robotics research trends
