Hi, I'm Andres Milioto, a Roboticist from —well— pretty much everywhere
Very short CV:
Graduated top of my class from a 5-year Electronics Engineering program in 2016 @ Universidad Nacional de Rosario
Spent some 2 years making robots here and there, most remarkably @ iRobot in Pasadena, CA
Got my PhD at Cyrill Stachniss' Photogrammetry and Robotics Lab @ University of Bonn, Germany. You can find my thesis here.
Currently working as Senior Staff Computer Vision Engineer @ Scythe Robotics
I like playing with gadgets and sometimes I get some light-bulb moments!
(Some) of my interests:
Robotics
Computer Vision
Embedded Electronics and Edge Compute
Real-time stuff (!!!)
Making robots do the things we don't want to do so that we can focus on the important stuff
In my free time:
I try to figure out what "the important stuff" actually is
I play a couple of instruments badly, just for fun, and I sing (just a bit better)
I tinker with embedded electronics, weird deep learning projects, and a bit of mapping and 3D reconstruction
I try to spend time outside as much as I can (especially now that I live in sunny and beautiful Colorado ⛷️)
Sometimes a good visual is worth more than a million words (or something like that, right?)
