May 2022 - Jun 2025
As part of my PhD in Robotics & AI at Federation University (May 2022 - Jun 2025), I established the Intelligent Drone Laboratory, the first indoor flight facility at the university, later featured on 7News and Federation University, from concept to fully operational testing and validation infrastructure. Built Brotor, a custom quadrotor research platform to support real-time trajectory planning research in cluttered environments.
Please refer to Publications for details on the research outcomes.
The first and only indoor flight facility at Federation University, established from scratch to support testing and validation of autonomous aerial systems.
Named by combining “Bro” (from Brother) and “tor” (from quadrotor), Brotor represents more than just a research platform, it’s a companion in my robotics journey. Built entirely from scratch as a custom solution rather than using commercial platforms, enabling quick iterations and modifications during research in real-time trajectory planning for cluttered environments.
