About
Jan Chudoba is a leading researcher in multi-robot systems, with a focus on the deployment and coordination of unmanned micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) in challenging, GPS-denied environments. His most significant contribution is the development of a system for deploying groups of MAVs using onboard visual relative localization, a breakthrough that enables swarms of drones to navigate and cooperate without external positioning infrastructure. This work, published in 2016, has garnered 154 citations, reflecting its profound impact on autonomous swarm robotics. Chudoba also pioneered a low-cost embedded system for relative localization in robotic swarms (90 citations), making swarm technology more accessible and practical. Beyond aerial robotics, he has made notable contributions to robotics education through the SyRoTek platform, a pioneering e-learning system that provides remote access to real mobile robots for teaching mobile robotics, artificial intelligence, and control engineering. This platform, which has accumulated over 70 citations, demonstrates his commitment to bridging research and education. Chudoba’s work is characterized by its practical, hardware-focused approach, enabling real-world applications in exploration, mapping, and multi-robot coordination.
