About Me:

I am an aerospace engineer with the DLR in Braunschweig. My department focusses on UAV related research.

Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

It started with a "design synthesis exercise" at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands where we designed and built a blended wing body UAV. From that followed an internship at the UAV Lab at Georgia Tech where I did autonomous car chasing. My Master thesis involved fusing 6 optical mouse sensors with imu to provide 6 dof motion, attitude and obstacle detection. Currently we are developing optical navigation for low flying rotorcraft UAVs and moon landers.
