SLASHH

/ shlesha gupta  —  slashh.ai

Building intelligent systems for the physical world.

> focus:

I build robots that see, think, and (mostly) don't fall over. Perception, autonomy, simulation, whatever it takes to get intelligence off the screen and into the real world.

LV.00WHO'S BEHIND THIS

Hey, I'm Shlesha. I go by SLASHH.

Engineering & Computational Mechanics at IIT Delhi by day, robots by everything else. I like problems that don't stay solved on a screen, the kind where you actually build something, it breaks in a way you didn't expect, and you get smarter fixing it ;) This site is basically my workshop, put online.

LV.01WHAT I BUILD

Four abilities, one obsession.

Most of what I build lives somewhere between perception, autonomy and products, the layer where a machine actually starts to understand the room it's standing in.

01

Robotics

Autonomous machines, perception, SLAM, navigation, drones and autonomous mobile robots.

XPMAX
02

Artificial Intelligence

Computer vision, object detection, deep learning, and intelligent agents that make decisions.

XPLV.8
03

Physical AI

AI systems that interact with real-world environments, not just screens.

XPLV.7
04

Deep-Tech Products

Turning innovations into scalable market ready products, the tony stark way;).

XPLV.6
LV.02CURRENT BUILD
MAIN BUILD // BOSS STAGE

RoVis

This is the thing I actually think about in the shower. A "perception layer" for robots, so nobody, including future me, has to rebuild vision from scratch every time we want a machine to see and understand where it is.

Started as a vision pipeline for one robot. Turned into something closer to shared infrastructure, the same core stack now handles SLAM, navigation, telemetry and simulated digital twins too!!

LV.03QUEST LOG

Everything I've built, in one place.

Not a resume-style project list. More like a save file of things I've actually shipped, broken, and rebuilt. Filter around and open any quest for the full dossier.

LV.04THE LAB // SIDE QUESTS

What I'm currently trying to figure out.

Half-formed ideas and things I'm actively poking at. No highlight reel here, this is the actual notebook, mess included.

LV.05BUILDING COMPANIES

Where engineering turns into a product.

I like the part of engineering where a genuinely hard technical problem turns into something that comes to play in real world and people can actually use it, selling the innovations that matter :)

LV.06WORLD MAP

A trajectory, not a resume.

The short version of how I got from "curious about robots" to building RoVis full-time.

1-1IIT DELHI

Engineering & Computational Mechanics

The foundation : math, systems thinking, and the habit of asking how things actually work.

1-2EARLY BUILDS

Robotics projects

First hands-on robots : navigation, control loops, and learning what breaks in the real world.

2-1GOING DEEPER

AI / Computer Vision

Moving from control to perception : teaching machines to notice things before they act on them.

2-2TESTING GROUND

Competitions

Robogambit, Shipathon and others : compressed timelines that force real engineering trade-offs.

3-1INDUSTRY

HydraDB

An engineering internship that pushed thinking beyond robotics : into infrastructure and systems at scale.

3-2RESEARCH

Semantic SLAM

Research into perception systems that don't just map space, but understand what's in it.

4-1CURRENT

RoVis

The current mission : perception infrastructure for robots, built to outlast any single project.

4-2NEXT

Deep-tech / Digital Twin exploration

Where simulation becomes the operating environment for physical AI.

LV.08TRANSMISSIONS

Building in public.

The stuff I post while it's happening, not after it's polished. Logs, notes, screenshots of things half-working.

LOG 003
Perception pipeline, take three

Rebuilding RoVis's vision stack around a leaner detection model — faster inference, fewer dropped frames in the field.

LOG 002
SLAM in the wild

Notes from running semantic SLAM outside a controlled lab setup, where the real edge cases show up.

FIELD NOTE
What broke this week

A short, honest log of what failed, why, and what it changed about the next iteration.

LOG 001
Why RoVis exists

The case for a shared perception layer instead of rebuilding vision from scratch for every robot.

I don't want to only build software that exists on screens.

I want to build intelligence that exists in the physical world.

OPEN TO COLLABORATION & DEEP-TECH ROLES

Let's talk.

If you're building robots, AI, deep-tech, or something sufficiently unreasonable, I probably want to hear about it! Reach out, no formal pitch needed ;)
