MQ Research Profile
I'm Avishkar Seth, a Robotics Research Engineer at Macquarie University specializing in aerial autonomy, avionics, and physical sensing systems. I turn complex theory into field-ready hardware—taking systems off the bench, testing under real constraints, and bridging research and commercial impact. Driven by relentless curiosity and a bias for physical reality, I’m always open to high-leverage collaborations in robotics, hard tech, and applied engineering.
I also lead Dronergy, a startup commercialising mid-air battery swapping for drones.
