is Assistant Professor of Machine Learning for Robotics at TU Munich.
His field of research is the area of mobile robotics, with focus on robot navigation through potentially unknown environments. He develops algorithms and software, which allow a robot (e.g. drone) using its sensors (e.g. video) to reconstruct 3D structure as well as to categorise it with the help of modern Machine Learning (including Deep Learning). This understanding enables safe navigation through challenging environments, as well as the interaction with it (including humans).
