About Shanelle

Shanelle Tennekoon is a PhD candidate in the School of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Mathematical Sciences at Curtin University, Australia. She earned her B.Sc. (Honours) degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT), Sri Lanka, in 2023. Following her undergraduate studies, she worked as an Assistant Lecturer in the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department at SLIIT. Her doctoral research, co-supervised by Professor Iain Murray and Dr. Nimsiri Abhayasinghe, centers on assistive technology, specifically AI-powered systems for semi-autonomous wheelchairs aimed at promoting safer independence for people with low vision. This involves advanced applications of machine learning, computer vision, and AI models to tackle real-world navigation challenges such as doorway alignment, depth estimation, object detection, and user preferences among wheelchair users in Australia.
