About
Tanuj Kumbhar

I build systems that have to see, decide and coordinate while the scene keeps moving — forensic marks that survive a moving surface, and coordination that holds when the network doesn’t.

Work

Pick a pill

Two roles, two very different problems, and nothing to tell you which is which except whose mark is in the hand. Take either one and it opens into the work, the stack and what it actually taught me.

Research & Innovation

Inside the
frame

Two problems, one method. Computational imaging that reads and writes signal inside moving frames. Swarm coordination that holds together when the topology changes by the second.

Both are the same question asked twice: how does a system stay legible to itself while everything in it keeps moving?

Ongoing01

Media Intelligent Engine

Ongoing research, Computational Imaging

A media engine that reasons about the stream while it packages it. Scene understanding finds which regions of the frame are safe to carry payload. Protection and forensic attribution are embedded inside the frame itself, so they survive re-encode and recapture.

In Progress02

FluxMark

Paper in progress, Non-rigid Surfaces

Recovering forensic watermarks from non-rigid surfaces (clothing, jerseys, fabric in motion) via real-time DensePose UV-unwrapping. Unwrapping a deforming surface into a stable UV domain makes a mark on a moving body recoverable, and turns that surface into addressable space.

Live03

Hiuen

Founder, Swarm Coordination at Human Scale

A geo-social network that treats a crowd as a swarm: collective "Traveler DNAs" instead of coordinates, with vibe-matching and real-time itinerary merging across a 10km radius.

Research04

Mesh Locationing

Swarm Positioning Without Infrastructure

Position derived from a Bluetooth mesh with no GPS and no internet. The swarm localises itself from peer geometry alone. Built for where no connection is the starting constraint.
