Research & projects

From ambitious ideas to working systems.

Selected European, national, regional, and industrial projects shape my work on dependable software, automated testing, cyber-physical systems, Physical AI, and trustworthy AI.

European projects

Current · Coordinator · PI

InnoGuard

Hybrid and Generative Intelligence for Trustworthy Autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems. I currently coordinate this European project and serve as its principal investigator; it began in 2024.

2024–2025 · PI

TRUST4AI

Trustable AI-Driven Internet Search, co-led with Professor Sergio Segura.

2020–2023 · Coordinator · PI

Adeptness

I coordinated and served as principal investigator for this H2020 project from 2020 to March 2023. Its former project website is no longer available, but the project remains an important part of the research portfolio.

Physical AI Lab

Our lab provides embodied platforms for research on robotic perception, navigation, autonomy, testing, and the transition from simulation to real-world operation.

Humanoid robot

Unitree G1

A humanoid platform for embodied intelligence and autonomous-system research.

Quadruped robot

Unitree Go2

A legged mobile platform for perception, navigation, and autonomous behaviour.

Ground rover

LeoRover

A mobile robotics platform for repeatable navigation and testing experiments.

Aerial platform

DJI Mini 4K

A compact drone supporting aerial perception and autonomous-system experiments.

Industrial collaborations

I currently collaborate on privately funded projects with companies that bring real engineering constraints and high-impact use cases into the research process.
