About

Rohit Roy is a robotics researcher whose work centers on autonomous navigation for indoor mobile robots, with a particular focus on Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and motion control. His key contributions lie in developing Exploration-Based SLAM (e-SLAM) systems that enable robots to autonomously map and navigate unknown indoor environments using only LiDAR sensors, a significant advancement for resource-constrained platforms. His most cited paper, "Exploration-Based SLAM (e-SLAM) for the Indoor Mobile Robot Using Lidar" (2022, 29 citations), introduces a method for robots to construct maps from scratch upon entering unexplored floors. Building on this, his follow-up work on path planning and motion control (2023, 14 citations) demonstrates how simple floor plans can be used to generate efficient traversal paths. Roy's research is notable for its practical approach to solving real-world navigation challenges with minimal sensor requirements, making his work highly relevant for applications in service robotics and warehouse automation. His e-SLAM framework represents a meaningful step toward truly autonomous indoor exploration.
