PhD in Robotics and Computer Vision (University of Lincoln, Lincoln)
Dr Feras Dayoub is a Chief Investigator with the ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic Vision and a Senior Lecturer with the Science and Engineering Faculty in Queensland University of Technology (QUT). His research interests are focused on the deployment of machine learning and computer vision on mobile robots in challenging environments. Feras worked with various types of real-world robotic applications, such as agrobotics as part of a Queensland DAF Agricultural Robotics Program in QUT, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) as the computer vision lead on the COTSBot project to protect the great barrier reef from crown-of-thorns starfish, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) as a team member in a project for assisted autonomy during the inspection of power infrastructure and mobile service robots as the postdoc lead in an ARC discovery project on lifelong robotic navigation using visual perception.
