Hi πŸ‘‹, I'm Gagan

A passionate Aerospace Engineering/Computer Science grad student at Cal Poly SLO who's extremely interested in stochastic optimal control, spacecraft entry/descent/landing (EDL), trajectory optimization, and state estimation.

  • πŸš€ I'm currently working on a few side projects including a Python library for Orbital Mechanics, developing CPP/Python packages for various simulation components, and a large scale rocket-landing simulator complete from state estimation to state actuation to trajectory generation and navigation! Check back soon for updates!

  • πŸ”­ I recently finished my thesis to develop a robust measurement process model for star trackers in LEO by looking at effects on accuracy and precision due to hardware, software, and environmental conditions.

  • πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’» While on the topic of Star Trackers, check out my work with the Cal Poly CubeSat Lab to develop our own low-cost, low-volume star tracker! I wrote all of the code to generate ground truth data and simulated images and am currently working to write our own centroiding algorithms via Convolution Matrices and CNNs!

  • πŸ’¬ Feel free to browse through my other side projects

  • πŸ“„ Interested in my professional background? See my CV here

  • ⚑ Fun fact: I've fostered 5 cats (and adopted 2 of them) through my school's Cat Fostering Program
