About

Chinmay Dharmatti is a leading researcher in robotics and autonomous systems, with a primary focus on path planning and navigation algorithms for mobile robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, and autonomous vehicles. His most influential contribution is the comprehensive survey "A Survey of Path Planning Algorithms for Mobile Robots" (2021), which has garnered over 370 citations, establishing itself as a foundational reference in the field. This work systematically categorizes and evaluates classical and modern path planning techniques—from graph-based and sampling-based methods to bio-inspired and machine learning approaches—providing critical insights for selecting safe, efficient, and collision-free algorithms. Dharmatti’s research addresses the core challenge of enabling autonomous systems to navigate complex environments reliably, directly impacting the development of self-driving cars and drone technologies. His survey is widely used by both academic researchers and industry practitioners, reflecting its practical significance. Through this work, Dharmatti has become a key voice in advancing autonomous navigation, helping to shape the trajectory of intelligent mobility solutions.
