Haptic Control for a swarm of mobile robots
January 1, 2018 – Present
- Force Feedback from a Geomagic Touch device is used to augment user control of a swarm of robots. - Movement of the device’s end effector in each axis used to control the speed, formation and heading of the swarm. - Force Feedback scheme to be implemented using a Mamdani Fuzzy Logic Controller. The force feedback is directly proportional to the displacement of the haptic device in each of the axis

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's project portfolio demonstrates a strong interest in cutting-edge robotics and AI research, indicating a proactive and innovative mindset. The variety of projects, from haptic control to reinforcement learning for robot-robot handover, suggests adaptability and a willingness to explore diverse technical areas. The experience in both academic research and industry roles (including CPO positions) indicates a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application, which could contribute positively to a dynamic team culture. However, the lack of explicit team-based project descriptions or collaboration details makes a deeper cultural fit assessment challenging.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's project descriptions indicate a strong problem-solving aptitude and a hands-on approach to complex engineering challenges. The experience as a Chief Product Officer suggests leadership potential and an understanding of product development, which could be beneficial for operational fit. However, without specific psychometric or English test results, a detailed assessment of communication clarity, work attitude, stress handling, and team collaboration is not possible.
