Researcher & PhD in Robotics
Western Norway University of Applied Sciences (HVL) · Førde, Norway
Dept. of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering & Mathematical Sciences
I am a researcher and PhD in robotics at the HVL Robotics group at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences. My work sits at the intersection of robotics, additive manufacturing, and intelligent sensing systems.
I am passionate about advancing robotic capabilities through novel mechanical design, flexible structures, and integration with IoT technologies. I collaborate closely with the Department of Robotics at VSB – Technical University of Ostrava in the Czech Republic, bridging international expertise to tackle real-world engineering challenges.
A particular strength of mine lies in the full development cycle — from concept and design through fabrication to hands-on testing. I enjoy bringing ideas to life as physical prototypes, not just in robotics but across engineering disciplines where 3D printing, mechatronics, and creative problem-solving intersect.
Design of robotic arms, shape-changing manipulators, gripper optimization, and robot repeatability analysis.
FFF/FDM 3D printing optimization, flexible materials, variable-orifice nozzles, and structural analysis of printed parts.
Integration of IoT technologies into robotic systems, embedded systems, wireless communication for mobile robots.
Distributed camera systems, obstacle detection, workspace monitoring for human–robot collaboration environments.
Improving human awareness and safety in collaborative workspaces through intelligent monitoring and adaptive robot behavior.
Automation of mechatronic design tasks, drive unit selection algorithms, and structural optimization methods.
