About
Ingolf Willms is a specialist in Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radar technology, with a focused research program centered on autonomous robotic security systems, indoor localization, environmental imaging, and advanced signal processing. His most recognized contributions revolve around the development of CoLORbot, an autonomous mobile security robot equipped with UWB radar capable of mapping unknown indoor environments, detecting solitary objects, and achieving super-resolution positioning — work that has garnered nearly 40 citations across his two most influential papers (2012–2013). Willms has consistently pushed the boundaries of UWB radar applications, pioneering techniques for in-wall object recognition using SAR-like imaging and hybrid ray tracing/FDTD simulation methods, as well as novel approaches to nondestructive material characterization through surface permittivity estimation. His 2016 work introduced an enhanced super-resolution wavefront extraction algorithm merging correlation and DCM techniques, reflecting his ongoing innovation in wideband FMCW radar signal processing. Spanning nearly a decade of research, Willms has built a coherent body of work bridging electromagnetic wave propagation, robotics, and security technology — making his contributions particularly valuable for researchers working at the intersection of radar sensing, autonomous systems, and indoor localization.
