Senior馃帗
Top SchoolCalen Robinson is an autonomy engineer with eight years of experience building and testing robotic and embedded systems, currently driving autonomy at Palladyne AI after recent research roles at Sarcos. He holds an industry-focused MS in Robotic Systems Development from Carnegie Mellon, where he led a multi-semester project on collision avoidance via obstacle trajectory prediction. His background spans perception, motion planning, and systems integration鈥攔anging from millimeter-accurate vision pipelines and delta-arm motion planners to Monte Carlo Tree Search adaptations for autonomous driving. Calen has hands-on experience with hardware-in-the-loop testing, camera validation on QNX, and production-focused automation in Python and C. He combines research rigor with practical product delivery, evidenced by a robotic sandwich-maker project at CMU and production test tools developed at Qualcomm. Based in Salt Lake City, he brings both lab-scale innovation and field-ready engineering to autonomy challenges.
