I started off as an electronics engineer (University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka), worked a bit in the telecommunication industry, and then moved on to do a PhD in mechatronics engineering at UNSW Sydney. For my PhD, I developed robust control algorithms which enhanced the performance of UAVs and space robots. After completing the PhD, I spent a year as a postdoctoral research fellow developing image processing solutions for the agricultural industry.
In 2016, my career took a turn when I co-founded HEO Robotics with Dr. William Crowe (www.heo-robotics.com), with the aim of imaging stuff in space by deploying cameras in space. We currently help commercial, government, and defence organisations to visually inspect their satellites and other space objects they care about using space-based camera systems.
