About

Santhosh Krishna B V is a robotics researcher focused on applying cloud and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to critical real-world problems. His work centers on two key areas: cloud robotics for industrial automation and IoT-based systems for humanitarian applications. In his highly cited 2016 paper "Cloud Robotics in Industry using Raspberry Pi" (21 citations), he demonstrated how cloud computing and shared infrastructure can enhance robotic capabilities in industrial settings, pioneering cost-effective approaches to smart manufacturing. His more recent work "IoT Based Alive Human Detection in War Field and Calamity Area Using Microcontroller" (5 citations) addresses a vital humanitarian need—developing a robot equipped with passive infrared (PIR) sensors to detect living humans in disaster zones and conflict areas, transmitting their locations wirelessly to rescue teams. This research has significant implications for search-and-rescue operations, potentially saving lives in earthquakes, building collapses, and warzones. Krishna's contributions bridge the gap between advanced robotics theory and practical, deployable solutions that serve both industry efficiency and humanitarian objectives.
