Claudio Coppola is a PhD candidate in Computer Science specialising in Artificial Intelligence with nine years of hands-on experience bridging research and education. Based in Wales, he supports undergraduate practicals at Aberystwyth University while contributing to applied robotics research, including a recent secondment developing a modular educational robot using Jetson Nano and custom 3D-printed components. He blends strong communication and mentoring skills with practical engineering—building, programming, and testing sensor-driven behaviors inspired by Braitenberg vehicles—and has experience presenting prototypes to academic and industry audiences. Claudio’s background in AI and robotics is grounded in formal MPhil and BSc training, and he brings a pragmatic, resourceful approach to turning research ideas into working educational tools that strengthen STEM teaching.
