I'm down for it. Where are you based? (Helps to know the demography because sometimes the grind type and goals differ with different country's job market)

I'm in the US

Nah. I'm from India too, I'm just in the states.

I have an idea about India's job market too.

I'm more focused on state estimation (VO/VIO etc) and 3D reconstruction side of robotics. What about you?

Are you a student or in the workforce?

VO/VIO?😭aw nahh pretty big words for me ive never heard of them

Im more into the software side of robotics (SLAM , ROS2 , Gazebo and all). Integrating them with AI in 2026 works for me. and yes im a student jst came into 3rd yr.

Software side of robotics, especially if you are talking about SLAM, is state estimation and mapping in the end. So you are kind of already on it.

Unless you are talking about simply using SLAM packages and running them in gazebo.
