About Me:
I am a software developer with a background in Artificial Intelligence and machine learning. I also have a number of interests across the scientific spectrum including Synthetic Biology, Computational Neuroscience,Quantum Computing and Nonlinear Dynamical Systems.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I would like to explore and asses the potential of the autonomous quadrocopter platform for practical real world applications, indoor or outdoor, in problem domains including transportation, construction, assisting the elderly at home. As standalone units or part of a constellation, problem specific architecture. I'm also quite interested in the commercialization of UAVs, industry standards and infrastructure needed to make UAV apps widespread and usefull.
