Neil Fernandes

Hello there! I'm a MASc student at the University of Waterloo, working with Dr. rer. nat. Kerstin Dautenhahn and Dr. Yue Hu on Robotic Systems and Human-Robot Interaction. I hold a BASc in Mechatronics Engineering (Summa Cum Laude) also from Waterloo. During my undergraduate studies, I gained valuable experience as an Intern at Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada and Huawei.

As a digital nomad passionate about advancing robotics, my primary goal is to develop safe and secure robots capable of interacting with humans in diverse scenarios. I'm particularly interested in creating algorithms that enhance robot intelligence and overall adaptability. I am also interested in research relating to vision algorithms and manipulation tasks for robots.
