Senior🎓
Top SchoolArne Peters is a Senior Computer Vision Engineer with 8 years of experience specializing in 3D perception, SLAM, and sensor calibration for robotic and industrial systems. He builds performance-critical C++ pipelines that deliver real-time visual navigation and robust long-term operation in GPS-denied and occlusion-prone environments. His work spans translating academic research into deployable software, leading EU-funded projects at TUM, and steering product-focused perception stacks in startups and industry (including ROS integration for KUKA manipulators). Arne combines deep algorithmic expertise with hands-on hardware integration and calibration, ensuring perception algorithms meet strict latency and accuracy constraints. Based in Augsburg, Germany, he has a PhD-focused background and a track record of shipping production systems such as a dental 3D scanner and robotic inspection platforms. Colleagues rely on him to bridge research, systems engineering, and maintainable code for long-term field deployments.

IFL-CAMP/iiwa_stack
Aug 2018 - Jun 2019
ROS integration for the KUKA LBR IIWA R800/R820 (7/14 Kg).
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer
Back-end DeveloperContributions:45 commits, 10 PRs, 59 comments in 9 months
Contributions summary:Arne primarily focused on integrating ROS (Robot Operating System) with a KUKA LBR IIWA robot. They made significant changes to the `iiwa_hw.cpp` file, likely for hardware interface implementation, incorporating URDF models, and defining joint interfaces. The commits also included adjustments to ROS Java files and messages used for SmartServo motions, indicating the development of robot control functionalities. These modifications suggest the user was heavily involved in building the bridge between robot hardware and the ROS software framework.
