LAUSANNE: Chennai-born engineer Shrihari Vasudevan's
claim to fame may not be a long walk when he completes
the "brain mapping" of a "home companion" robot, a
prestigious project of the Swiss Federal Institute of
Technology, expected to be accomplished by 2008.
"Yes, it will be a dream come true for me. I am giving
it my best shot," says Vasudevan, who is pursuing
doctorate in robot technology at the institute here,
80 kms from Geneva.
After graduating from the Madras University, Vasudevan
went to the U.S. to complete his masters in
engineering before landing in this institute for his
PhD.
Vasudevan, who is in his late twenties, is working on
the mapping of the "brain" for the home robot, the
most essential part of the project. "Well, we are
working as a team. It is not that I am doing the most
essential part. Everyone's role is important,"
Vasudevan said in humility.
The project named "Cogniniron" is a joint effort of a
consortium of companies from Switzerland, France,
Germany and the United Kingdom besides a German-based
firm GPS, which will have the marketing rights.
