About

CH. R. Vikram Kumar is an emerging researcher whose work sits at the dynamic intersection of robotics, additive manufacturing, and computer vision. His research primarily focuses on advancing Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) technologies by integrating industrial robotic systems, as well as developing intelligent image-processing techniques for robotic control and automation. Among his most notable contributions is his pioneering investigation into dual nozzle FDM using 6-axis industrial robots, which addresses a critical limitation of conventional FDM machines — their restricted degrees of freedom. By harnessing the full rotational and positional flexibility of industrial robots, Kumar's work opens new possibilities for complex, multi-material 3D printing applications. His complementary research on background subtraction techniques for feature extraction of moving objects demonstrates a sophisticated approach to enabling robots to perceive and respond to their environments more intelligently, with direct applications in position control of joint arm robots. With a growing citation record across multiple publications since 2019, Kumar has established himself as a promising voice in robotics-integrated manufacturing and machine vision. His interdisciplinary approach — bridging mechanical fabrication with intelligent sensing — positions him as a researcher to watch in the evolving landscape of smart manufacturing and automation.
