DEPOT — MULTIMODAL LOCOMOTIVE SCAN
Case File2024
NYU Abu Dhabi · CAIR with Etihad Rail
Led industry-facing translation of CAIR autonomous-systems research into a strategic collaboration with Etihad Rail — stakeholder engagement, lab visits, and depot inspection with Spot, which I operated to gather multimodal locomotive data for analysis and predictive maintenance, plus public demonstration of partnership intent.
Case File2024
NYU Abu Dhabi · SMART Lab with Etihad Rail
Supported the Etihad Rail proposal and train-side sensing pilot — coordinating the industry engagement and the field installation of the rearward LiDAR and camera payload used to capture corridor evidence for the desert-environment monitoring concept.
Case File2013–2016
NYU Abu Dhabi · with University of Ottawa
Designed and field-validated a gaze-driven wheelchair navigation stack with shared autonomy — the most-cited work in the publication record (170+ citations).
Case File2020–2022
NYU Abu Dhabi · CAIR
System integration and experimental development across the CAIR UAV perception thread — arena instrumentation, RGB-T PTZ pipelines, and field validation that underpins six peer-reviewed papers (2020–2022).
DATE PLANTATION — FIELD CORRIDOR
Case File2020
NYU Abu Dhabi · with Imperial College London IDE
Built the multimodal field data collector and automated the inspection path on Clearpath Husky — sensor fusion, SLAM under canopy, and Gazebo simulation for plantation-scale monitoring.
Case File2010–2012
ΤΕΙ Piraeus · Department of Automation (BSc thesis)
Sole author of the BSc Automation Engineering thesis — designed, built, and demonstrated the AR.Drone sensing payload, ArduPilot firmware interfaces, and LabVIEW GCS for GPS path planning and automatic navigation.
