About

Sakshi Chonkar is a rising researcher in the field of construction robotics and automation, with a focused interest in developing intelligent, cost-effective solutions for labor-intensive building tasks. Her primary research areas include robotic manipulation, embedded control systems, and human-robot collaboration for construction applications. Chonkar’s major contributions center on the design and implementation of autonomous wall painting robots, as demonstrated in her two most-cited papers from 2024: “RoboPaint-The proposed Wall Painting Robot” and “Robotic Wall Painter: An Automated Wall Painting Approach.” These works present a unified control system that seamlessly integrates hardware and software to achieve efficient, precise, and safe painting operations. By addressing the high demand for painters in the construction industry—where manual labor is costly, time-consuming, and hazardous—Chonkar’s research offers a promising alternative that enhances productivity and worker safety. Although her work is early-stage, with each paper garnering 2 citations, the practical relevance and innovation of her robotic painting solutions signal a significant potential for future impact in construction automation. Her contributions are particularly notable for bridging the gap between theoretical robotics and real-world construction challenges.
