Research Interests
My activity is focused towards marine robotic technology, in particular Remote Operated Vehicles (ROVs) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) for deep-water research. I design, develop and assemble vehicles that have magnetically driven battery powered vectored engines with fiber-optic umbilical wires and robotic manipulator arms. Moreover, I also deal with the code-programming of the circuit boards that manage the control logic of the vehicle functioning.
