G C NANDI'S NEIGHBOURHOOD

Search this site

Hi! Welcome to Prof G C Nandi's home page.



I am G C Nandi, currently working as the senior most  Professor and Dean (R & D) at the premier  Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad.  Also heading the IT Division of the institute. It is a wonderful experience for me to interact with such talented young minds. I teach them various subjects and learn many things from them!
  
I like to create robots which will interact with us intelligently like humans.
 
We developed a technology for AMAL (Adaptive Modular Active Leg), which is controlled by Biologically Inspired CPG (Central Pattern Generator). It can give maximum comfort to an amputee with minimum cost (approximately US $ 250 as on June 2011). For details about the technology please see on left side Navigation  "Copies of some Publications for Citation".
 
I dream one day every household will have a Personal Robot. It will help us in everyday household cleaning, dish washing and doing other dirty jobs. Also it will share emotions with us, give us company in old age and take care of our health when our near and dear ones will be away from us in their professional lives. Other significant mission of our research is to develop technology with the help of knowledge of robotics which can help differently abled persons to live a normal life.
For me robotics is a framework where we can develop many new and sophisticated  technologies and test them  for their real life implementation.
 
My team (Under graduate students, Masters students, Ph.D scholars and research associates) is working dedicatedly in these areas. We strongly use technologies under CCC-
  1. Computer Control Systems (Neuro- Fuzzy controller, Adaptive controller, Control based on nonlinear dynamics)
  2. Communication ( Wireless communication with sensor networks, RFID and Blue tooth based communication)
  3. Gesture based communications with Humanoid Robots, Temporal Pattern Mining and knowledge discovery in Humanoid robot gestures
  4. Computer Science and Engineering (Our robotics research and teaching is strongly based on Machine Intelligence. For creating intelligent  robots we rely on Markov Processes (HMM), Simulated Annealing, Dynamic Baysian Network, Artificial Neural Network, Fuzzy Logic, Genetic Algorithm, Support Vector Machines.)
Our current research is focused on
  • Developing a strong FRAMEWORK for Gesture based communications with Humanoid Robots
  • Creating Technologies for Mining Temporal Patterns for Humanoid robots
  • Analyzing human behaviors in the social networking environment
  • Creating new methodologies for secured agent based communications  
  • Assistive robotics
