Portrait of Ashwin Narayan

Biography

Hello, I am Ashwin! I am a roboticist, amateur photographer and writer based in Singapore. I work as a Research Fellow in the Biorobotics Lab at NUS, building and testing rehabilitation and industrial exoskeletons. My expertise spans exoskeleton control, machine learning, biomechanics, and embedded systems. I graduated with a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from the National University of Singapore during which I worked on control of lower limb rehabilitation exoskeletons.

I like to take photographs in my spare time. I lean towards sunlit landscapes and interesting architecture and have a special interest in film photography. I am also an aspiring science fiction writer. Having been inspired by science fiction writers like Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke, I feel that the world needs more positive, inspiring stories that lay out a vision of where technology can take humanity.
