About

Ayush Ranjan is a rising researcher in industrial automation and robotics, whose work focuses on developing sustainable, cost-effective solutions for manufacturing and hazardous environments. His most cited paper, "Wireless and Solar-Powered Multipurpose Robot for Industrial Automation: A Sustainable Solution" (2023, 39 citations), introduces a self-driving mobile robot that automates material-handling and transportation tasks, reducing worker fatigue and boosting factory productivity. Building on this, his second highly cited work, "Industrial Automated Multipurpose Robot Using WIFI" (2023, 33 citations), presents a low-cost, phone-controlled robot capable of pick-and-place and floor cleaning operations using an ESP32 microcontroller. Most recently, Ranjan has ventured into safety-critical applications with "A cyber-physical system based unmanned ground vehicles for safety inspection and rescue support in an underground mine" (2025, 2 citations), where he developed a UGV that maps mine environments using a CPS-based analytical framework. This work demonstrates his commitment to applying robotics in dangerous settings, from industrial floors to underground mines. With over 70 combined citations and a clear trajectory toward intelligent, sustainable automation, Ranjan is making impactful strides in practical robotics.
