Design and implement real-time perception algorithms for object detection, classification and multi-target tracking, fusing EO/IR cameras, radar and IMU data. Build state estimation and localization pipelines, interpret sensor ICDs, and validate performance in simulation and flight test. Works closely with autonomy and hardware teams on SWaP-constrained airborne platforms.

Owns the multimodal perception front-end end to end, architecting a stack that fuses EO and LWIR cameras, radar, LiDAR and IMUs into a coherent input for AI. Defines sensor selection, synchronisation (PTP/gPTP, PPS, hardware triggers), intrinsic/extrinsic calibration and safety concepts, working hands-on in the lab with hardware, electrical and computer-vision teams. Systems go into operational defence environments rather than prototypes.

Develops and deploys visual-inertial odometry, visual SLAM and vision-based navigation for autonomous aircraft in GNSS-denied environments. Takes perception algorithms from prototype through embedded C++ implementation, field testing and flight validation, optimising for Jetson/Orin platforms. Distinctly focused on robotics perception and state estimation rather than general AI/ML.
