José Miguel Almeida is the Coordinator at INESCTEC’s Centre for Robotics and Autonomous Systems. He is a Professor at the School of Engineering (ISEP) of the Porto Polytechnic Institute (IPP). His main research areas are navigation, sensing, perception and awareness for field robotics applications, focusing on marine, aerial and multi-robot systems and the design of innovative autonomous field robotics systems. He participated in a large number of European and national research projects, coordinating the INESCTEC team in several of them. In particular, he was the INESC TEC responsible for the Perception, Navigation and Awareness WP in the ¡VAMOS! H2020 Projects; the conception and design of the UX1 robots, the perception, navigation and awareness in UNEXMIN H2020 Projects and in the UNEXUP EIT RM project. He was involved in the design of several innovative autonomous robots, EVA, IRIS, UX1 and UX1Neo AUVs, four generations of Turtle Robotic Landers, Roaz ASV, Grifo and Grifo-X UAV. He is the author of 90+ scientific publications in conferences and journals with peer review.
