Research Analyst & AI Engineer passionate about robotics, machine learning, and building intelligent systems that make a real-world impact.
I'm Salman N V, a Research Analyst and AI Data Engineer from Kerala, India. With a background that spans robotics hardware, machine learning models, and business development, I bring a uniquely diverse perspective to every project.
Currently based in Chennai, I specialize in building intelligent systems — from ESP32-powered voice assistants to joystick-controlled robotic arms — combining hardware craftsmanship with cutting-edge AI capabilities.
Tools and technologies I work with to build intelligent systems.
EDA, automation, scripting, ML pipelines
NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn, Scikit-learn
IoT devices, sensors, voice assistants, automation
Dashboards, data visualizations, reporting
Robotic arms, humanoid hands, obstacle avoidance bots
VS Code, Google Colab, R Studio, MS Office
Conducted research in AI and robotics domains. Worked on intelligent systems, data analysis pipelines, and contributed to business strategy for emerging tech products.
Drove business development initiatives, client acquisition, and market expansion strategies for construction & infrastructure projects across Kerala.
Managed business development for a food-tech startup. Handled partner outreach, market research, and operational coordination.
Specialized training in robotics, AI, machine learning models, and advanced data analytics. Hands-on with real hardware and data pipelines.
Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. Developed strong written and verbal communication skills alongside critical thinking abilities.
Hardware meets AI — real systems built from scratch.
Autonomous IoT waste management system that detects obstacles and navigates to dispose of waste independently. Combines ultrasonic sensors with servo-driven mechanics.
A joystick-controlled 4-axis robotic manipulator capable of precise movements across all degrees of freedom. Built with servo motors, custom frame, and joystick input mapping.
A gesture or joystick controlled robotic hand that mimics human finger movements. Designed with 3D-printed joints, servo actuators, and flex sensor input mapping.
Open to collaborations, projects, and new opportunities.
