Summary
My research is centered around autonomous robot navigation: robots need dedicated sensing capabilities as well as algorithms for localisation inside a potentially unknown environment. In the past, I have mostly worked with Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), in order to allow them to fly autonomously and close to the ground.
