About
Domingo Acedo is a robotics researcher specializing in autonomous multi-robot systems for emergency response, particularly in GPS-denied environments. His major contributions center on developing heterogeneous teams of aerial and ground robots capable of collaboratively detecting, locating, and extinguishing fires in complex urban scenarios. Acedo’s most cited work, "An Aerial/Ground Robot Team for Autonomous Firefighting in Urban GNSS-Denied Scenarios" (2022, 11 citations), presents a pioneering framework that addresses the critical challenge of operating without satellite navigation. This system was designed for Challenge 3 of the prestigious Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC) 2020, requiring robots to autonomously navigate multiple interior floors and exterior facades to extinguish fires. His follow-up paper, "Skyeye Team at MBZIRC 2020" (2021, 4 citations), details the team’s integrated approach, showcasing practical deployment of these technologies in a competitive setting. Acedo’s work pushes the boundaries of field robotics, demonstrating how coordinated multi-robot teams can enhance safety and efficiency in hazardous, infrastructure-limited environments. His research is highly relevant for students and engineers interested in autonomous navigation, human-robot collaboration, and real-world disaster response applications.
