We are happy to dedicate this post to our new volunteer: Shaunak Kapur. Shaunak is a soon-to-be senior in high school (Texas), and he has been captivated by robotics from a young age. He has participated in numerous robotics competitions (namely VEX and FRC), pursued robotics/engineering internships and robotics-based research projects, and even worked to develop robot products in medical applications that aid individuals with motor skill impediments.

Shaunak’s volunteering role will be to summarize the most exciting news in robotics that comes up, either in academia or industry.

If you are interested in his impressive skills and experience at his young age, you can check out his CV below. Welcome to our community, Shaun!
