2025; Reverie, Visual Novel (Spooktober)
Check out this game my brother and I made for the Spooktober gamejam on itch.io. I had around 1-2hrs of free time to spare each day and we ended up finishing the visual novel in like a week's time for submission. All the characters, story, mechanics and the visuals are made from scratch. You can play it on your browser, if you are on a PC. Also, it is free!

2025; Huggingface LeRobot Global Hackathon (Bronze)
About the Project This was a global hackathon that I and some of my friends from the lab joined. It was about the use of LeRobot's SO-101 robots and Huggingface's new foundation model, a Vision-Language-Action (VLA) called SmolVLA . We used it for a multi-robot collaboration task where two of these robots come together to pick up a specific object and transfer between them. Two SmolVLA models run together and we fine-tuned them using imitation learning for our this task. We

2025; SleeperAgent (AI707 Advanced Topics in DRL Project)
About the Project I worked on this project in KAIST with Myriam Schonenenberger , AI Dept., for the AI707 course. The project was called SleeperAgent: Dreaming from a Third Perspective , and it was about "dreaming" up a 3rd person view given only the wrist camera view for a manipulator to improve task efficiency and success rates. The github repo is: https://github.com/otoshuki/sleeperagent Note that everything written here was just copy pasted from the original report we wro

2024; Robot Control: Kinematic Redundancy
About the Project I took a course called EE683: Robot Control by Professor Min Jun Kim at KAIST during my 2nd semester. One good thing about the course was the bi-weekly assignment which had one specific part where the students were free to implement any algorithm and provide simulation results. I ended up implementing a lot of the techniques and models learned in the course. These are a series of blog posts that cover some of those sections since I felt like it was worth sha

2024; Quadruped HIL Simulation
About the Project This was a project I started working on but due to time constraints I couldn't fully complete. However, I think it is still worth writing down about it. This was about making a quadruped simulation model in MATLAB which I was planning to use for some downstream research work like RL algorithms. Hence, I started with building the quadruped model from scratch in Simscape multibody and then using ROS to communicate with the true Unitree Go 1 EDU quadruped for a

2021; Multi-Agent Multi-Objective Optimization with Deep Q-Learning (Bachelor's Thesis)
//certain sections of the original Thesis have been removed Introduction This work was my final year project under Dr. Hanumant Singh Shekhawat at EEE, IITG performed along with Devashish Taneja (ECE, IITG). The research aimed to target defense scenarios and disaster management task where multiple "goal areas" with different "weights" are to be reached and completed by a group of agents within a time limit. The work was primarily on developing a model for this problem, genera
