About me
Hi I’m Robbie, my background is in robotics and automation so I’m really excited to further my knowledge and skillset at the CDT. I’m going to carry out my studies at the University of Lincoln where I did my first MSc. My main interests are human-robot interaction and autonomous decision-making / actions but I’m also really keen to explore the world of ethics and sustainability in regards to deploying robotics and autonomous systems
MSc Project
Title to be confirmed
PhD Project
Reconfigurable Mobile Platform for Autonomous Monitoring and Analysis of Crop and Field Conditions
Robbie’s PhD project is being carried out in collaboration with Douglas Bomford Trust, with primary supervision by Dr Francesco Del Duchetto.
