Raj Reddy Raj Reddy, an Indian-American professor and researcher in AI and Robotics, was recognised for his contribution towards revolutionising AI and speaker-independent continuous speech recognition.

Hyderabad: Telugu-born artificial intelligence and robotics researcher Raj Reddy has been honoured by the Computer History Museum (CHM) as part of its 2021 CHM Fellow Awards programme. Reddy, an Indian-American professor and researcher in AI and Robotics, was recognised for his contribution towards revolutionising AI and speaker-independent continuous speech recognition.

Reddy founded the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute, one of the top three labs in the world exploring applied robotics technology research. Reddy’s pioneering work showcases how technology can serve society, particularly in bridging the digital divide through education.

Raised in Chittoor district, Andhra Pradesh, Reddy played an instrumental role in creating the Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies to meet the educational needs of low-income, gifted, rural youth across the nation. Reddy has influenced thousands of students, many of whom have gone on to make vital and important contributions to computer science, artificial intelligence, and robotics, over a five-decade teaching career.

Reddy said, “It is an honour to receive the prestigious 2021 Computer History Museum Fellow Award. In this digital world, new technologies make it easier than ever to transfer knowledge and information and educate new audiences. I am humbled by this recognition and am looking forward to seeing how future innovations build on legacy technologies to further advance speech recognition and AI for new use cases across banking, e-commerce, telehealth and so much more.”

While discussing Reddy’s contribution towards education in India, Natarajan Chandrasekaran, chairman,  and Business Executive & Chair, said, “It pleases me to congratulate Prof. Raj Reddy for being selected as a Fellow of the Computer History Museum for his profound contributions to technology, society and underprivileged communities. Having contributed to several areas of AI, Raj is a pioneer for his work in the field of speech technologies and creating a significant impact in the areas of literacy and college education in India.”
