Mr Pranjal Bhatia

Dr. Pranjal Bhatia earned his joint PhD in Robotics from the QUT Centre for Robotics, Australia, and IIIT Delhi, India, in 2025. His doctoral research focused on developing decentralized control frameworks for multi-agent robotic systems using control barrier functions. He is currently a Research Associate with the School of Engineering and Technology at UNSW Canberra, where he is working on decentralized frontier-led swarming for dynamic task allocation in heterogeneous UAV swarms. His research aims to design robust and adaptive coordination mechanisms that enable drone swarms to operate autonomously in complex and dynamic environments, with applications in defense, surveillance, and large-scale exploration.
