About

Prathiksha Shetty is a researcher at the forefront of agricultural robotics and sustainable engineering, with a focus on integrating computational modeling and renewable energy into practical automation solutions. Her most impactful work, "Computational modelling for the manufacturing of solar-powered multifunctional agricultural robot" (2023), has garnered 34 citations, highlighting its significance in advancing eco-friendly farming technologies. This paper presents a novel framework for designing robots that can perform multiple agricultural tasks—such as seeding, weeding, and harvesting—while being powered entirely by solar energy, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Shetty also contributed to the development of the "Aqua Robot for Floating Collection in Water Body" (2021), a specialized aquatic robot designed to autonomously collect floating debris from water bodies, addressing environmental pollution. Her research bridges the gap between theoretical modeling and real-world deployment, offering scalable solutions for precision agriculture and water conservation. By combining computational design with practical robotics, Shetty’s work is paving the way for smarter, greener automation in resource-constrained settings, making her a notable voice in the intersection of robotics, sustainability, and agricultural innovation.
