Prior to that, I obtained the Master of Science in Computer Science with highest distinction from the Munich University of Applied Sciences.
My research interests include computer vision and machine learning, with their applications in mobile robotics, specifically autonomous flying and driving. I am also passionate about planetary robotics and spaceflight in general 🚀
