Featured Projects

Vision-Based Vegetable Sorting using UR3e, RealSense D435i & YOLOv8
A ROS2-based perception and manipulation pipeline using UR3e, YOLOv8, RealSense D435i, MoveIt2, and Robotiq 2F-140 for classification, localization, and autonomous pick-and-place.

Diamond Polishing Automation System
Industrial-grade automation system using computer vision and robotic alignment to assist in precision diamond polishing.

Curio – Autonomous Museum Guide Robot
A mobile robot designed to guide visitors through exhibitions with autonomous navigation and interactive behavior.
Engineering Focus
I work end-to-end across mechanical design, embedded systems, and ROS 2 integration building prototypes that can be tested, iterated, and handed off cleanly. My long-term research direction is cognitive robotics, but this portfolio emphasizes practical system integration and measurable outcomes.
Work With Me
I take on short, outcome-driven engagements alongside my studies ideal for early-stage hardware teams that need fast iteration and integration. This is not a “consulting brand” page; it’s simply a clear way to collaborate.
Prototype Integration
Bring-up, debugging, integration planning, and making subsystems work together reliably.
ROS 2 + Manipulation
ROS 2 pipelines, MoveIt 2 setup, simulation-to-real workflows, perception-to-action.
Embedded + Mechanical
STM32/Arduino proof-of-concepts, sensors, control loops, Fusion 360 parts for fast iteration.

Hannover Messe 2026 - Conversations from the Floor
Five days at Hannover Messe 2026 with a microphone and a notebook. Recorded conversations with engineers at Agile Robots, Franka Robotics, Aeon Robotics, and Sarcomere Dynamics about what does not work yet, what surprised them, and where the real unsolved problems in robotics actually live.
Why I Build Robots
An introduction to how I think about robotics, intelligent machines, and the work behind the projects on this website.
About Me
I’m Ruchit Bhanushali, an M.Eng. Intelligent Robotics student in Germany with a systems-integration mindset. I build robotics prototypes spanning industrial manipulation, ROS 2 workflows, simulation-to-real iteration, embedded control, and mechanical design.
Let’s collaborate on real systems.
Open to robotics teams, early-stage hardware startups, and academic collaborations especially integration-heavy work (ROS 2, manipulation, embedded, prototyping).
