About

Arnab Bhattacharjee is a versatile researcher whose work spans robotics, environmental engineering, and web technology. His primary research areas include autonomous robotic systems for environmental cleanup, voice-controlled rescue robotics, and web crawling protocols. Bhattacharjee’s most impactful contribution is the design of an unmanned floating waste collecting robot (2019, 42 citations), a cost-effective, remote-controlled solution for removing plastic and other debris from canals, ponds, rivers, and oceans—addressing the critical ecological imbalance caused by unregulated plastic waste. He also developed a Bangla voice-controlled robot for rescue operations in noisy environments (2016, 19 citations), creating an efficient algorithm for accurate Bangla speech detection to guide robotic motion during emergencies. Earlier, Bhattacharjee conducted a large-scale study of robots.txt (2008, 17 citations), analyzing how websites regulate search engine crawler access and the biases this creates in web content indexing. This work provides foundational insights into web governance and search engine fairness. Together, his research demonstrates a unique blend of practical engineering for environmental and humanitarian challenges, with notable impact in both physical robotics and digital information systems.
