About

Shuvrangshu Jana is an emerging robotics researcher whose work sits at the intersection of autonomous systems, multi-agent coordination, and aerial robotics. Based at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Jana has made notable contributions to the design and deployment of cooperative unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems capable of performing complex real-world tasks with minimal human intervention. Jana's most recognized work centers on the IISc-TCS team's participation in the prestigious Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC) 2020, where he contributed to developing autonomous systems capable of intercepting both aerial and stationary targets — a technically demanding problem requiring tight integration of computer vision, control theory, and multi-robot coordination. His research explores vision-based interception, collaborative aerial tracking, and physical manipulation by UAVs in unstructured environments, pushing the boundaries of what autonomous flying systems can accomplish in dynamic scenarios. With a cumulative citation count reflecting growing recognition within the robotics community, Jana's work demonstrates strong practical relevance, bridging theoretical frameworks with real hardware implementations. His research is particularly valuable for students and engineers interested in swarm robotics, aerial manipulation, and autonomous mission planning in GPS-denied or adversarial environments.
