Main Focus

I am Ph.D. student form University of Padova; I am working at Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, in the group guided by , about localization e rigidty maintenance for a group Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.

Projects

	ARCADE R2
2012-2013	This project was in the ESA REXUS/BEXUS program. The final goal was to design and implement an improved version of the ARCADE EXPERIMENT project. I was responsible for the design and the implementation of the software and motion control.
	UCR PROJECT
2012	I developed my master thesis at the UCR (Univeristy of California Riverside), supervised by Elisa Franco (UCR) and Luca Schenato (UniPD). The goal was to study the behaviour of a group of autonomus robots with competitive objectives controlled using receding horizion control.
	ARCADE EXPERIMENT
2010-2011	This project was in the ESA REXUS/BEXUS program.ARCADE, which stands for Autonomous Rendezvous, Control And Docking Experiment, is a technology demonstrator whose aim is to prove the feasibility of a small scale docking system, including automatic attitude determination and control capabilities, and to determine its performance under different atmospheric conditions.
