About
Marco Sewtz is a leading researcher in multi-robot systems, human-robot interaction, and space robotics, with a focus on developing robust, scalable autonomy for heterogeneous robotic teams. His major contributions span caregiving, planetary exploration, and teleoperation, where he has pioneered frameworks for knowledge-driven control and multi-camera localization in dynamic environments. Sewtz’s work on the Surface Avatar ISS mission—demonstrating the first ISS-to-surface multi-robot collaboration with scalable autonomy teleoperation—showcases his impact on real-world space exploration, while his IndoorMCD benchmark advances SLAM for domestic robotics. With over 100 citations across his most-cited papers, including foundational studies on robotic caregiving ecosystems (30 citations) and robust localization (14 citations), Sewtz has shaped both terrestrial and extraterrestrial applications. His notable achievements include leading the euROBIN hackathon for door-to-door parcel delivery and developing URSim, a versatile simulator for extraterrestrial testing. Sewtz’s research bridges theory and practice, enabling intuitive, multi-user control of robot teams in complex, dynamic settings—from elderly care homes to the lunar surface.
