About Me
Hi, I am Vignesh Viswanathan. Currently pursuing my Masters' in Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas and an AWS Certified Solutions Architect. I Live to Code and work towards empowering code and applications to better help the society.
I majored in Electronics and Telecommunication during my Undergrad Engineering and have extensively worked in fields such as embedded systems design and Robotics.
I did some exciting work with SPRAC, my institute's Robotic committee and participated in the Internation Robocon from 2016 through 2019. Along with two batchmates, I floated Exsilio Tech, an independent startup organization.
I enjoy freelancing and developing projects and applications as a hobby and take immense pleasure in teaching and public speaking.

Patent
The product patent for the AEBS was accepted by the Controller of Patents of India as an Intellectual property and filed as a provisional patent in 2018. ID: 201821027581
The Autonomous Exhaust Based Braking System(AEBS), designed for two-wheelers, cultivated the exhaust and performed autonomous braking. The basic utility of the AEBS was an Air-Brake, but instead of using pressurized air, it used pressurized exhaust.
International Robocon
SPRAC (Sardar Patel Robotics & Automation Committee)
Sardar Patel Institute of Robotics and Automation(SPRAC) participates in the International Robocon every year. In the ABU Robocon '18, SPRAC ranked 6th overall India. I headed the image processing and autonomous algorithm design team for the Autonomous Robot.
