Dr. Vitor Santos obtained a 5-year degree in Electronics Engineering and Telecommunications in 1989, at the University of Aveiro, Portugal, where he later obtained a PhD in Electrical Engineering in 1995, and in 2018 the Aggregation title in Mechanical Engineering. He was awarded fellowships to pursue research in mobile robotics during 1990-1994 at the Joint Research Center, Italy. He his currently Associate Professor at the University of Aveiro and lectures courses related to advanced perception and robotics, and has carried out research activity on mobile robotics, advanced perception and humanoid robotics. At the University of Aveiro he has coordinated the ATLAS project for mobile robot competition that achieved 6 first prizes in the annual Autonomous Driving competition and has coordinated the development of ATLASCAR the first real car with autonomous navigation capabilities in Portugal. He supervised and co-supervised 4 Post-Doc researchers, 7 PhD theses, 100 Masters theses, 6 post-graduation fellowships and more than 30 graduation and undergraduate projects. He co-authored more than 150 publications in journals, conferences and book chapters, and participated or coordinated multiple research projects or in contracts with industrial companies. He is one of the founders of the Portuguese Robotics Open in 2001 where he maintained active participation for more than 12 years. He his also co-founder of the Portuguese Society of Robotics, and participated several times in its management since its foundation in 2006. His current interests extend to humanoid robotics and the application of techniques from perception and mobile robotics to autonomy and safety in ADAS contexts including Autonomous Driving.
