Summary
Antonis Sidiropoulos is an AI Engineer with 8 years of experience building production robotics and intelligent systems, currently based in Greece. He has designed and deployed ROS 2-based robotics stacks, real-time motion planners and C++ drivers for multi-brand industrial arms, and has integrated CNN and Transformer models into control pipelines for factory deployments. As a senior engineering lead he mentored teams, coordinated cross-functional feature rollouts, and delivered on-site integration for palletizing and manipulation systems. His research background (PhD-level work at AUTH and collaborations with CERTH and Chalmers) underpins applied contributions like CNN-guided sampling strategies for motion planning and learned trajectory generation from RGB-D imagery. Comfortable moving models from research into deterministic real-time C++ control, he blends academic rigor with hands-on field deployment experience. Notably, he has repeatedly bridged adaptive control and ML-based planners to solve peg-hole and co-manipulation challenges in industrial settings.
