About
Jan Reich is a leading researcher in the safety and reliability of autonomous cyber-physical systems, with a focus on dynamic risk management for human-robot collaboration and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). His work centers on engineering runtime safety assurance for systems that must adapt to unpredictable environments, particularly in shared spaces where humans and autonomous mobile robots interact. Reich’s most cited paper, “SafeDrones: Real-Time Reliability Evaluation of UAVs Using Executable Digital Dependable Identities” (2022, 15 citations), introduces a novel framework for assessing drone dependability during operation, enabling real-time safety decisions. He also pioneered the concept of “Plug-and-Produce... Safely!” (6 citations), addressing how modular production systems can be reconfigured without compromising safety. His research on integrating human skeleton posture models into the REACTiON framework (3 citations) advances dynamic risk management by allowing robots to anticipate and respond to human movements. Reich’s practical experience report on deploying runtime monitors across microcontrollers, edge, and cloud (2 citations) demonstrates his commitment to bridging theory and real-world implementation. Through his work, Reich is shaping the future of safe, cooperative autonomy in industrial and aerial domains.
