Our last episode for 2021, and what a cracking guest!

On this episode of the podcast, Andrew chats with Stefan Hrabar – CEO and and Co-Founder at Australian organisation, Emesent. Stefan has a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Southern California and he has been adding sensing and autonomy to drones for over 17 years. Stefan has extensive experience in vision and lidar-based UAV obstacle avoidance, UAV path planning algorithms, UAV mission planning tools, and 3D visualisation of UAV-collected data.

For those that don’t know Emesent (and it’s likely not many people), Emesent is a world-leader in drone autonomy, LiDAR mapping, and data analytics. Andrew chats with Stefan about the history of Emesent and the recent contribution to the outstanding efforts of the Data61 / CSIRO team in the DARPA SubT Challenge.

To commence our 2022 year, we will be conducting a ‘UK Tour’ to highlight some outstanding UK organisations. Have a safe and Merry Christmas!

Enjoy.
