Iñigo Vidal is a satellite communications researcher and engineering leader with eight years of experience translating advanced signal processing algorithms into resource-constrained hardware through HW/SW codesign. As Co-Founder and CTO of RobNav and a Senior Scientist in Fraunhofer IIS’s Satellite-based Localization Systems department, he focuses on robust tracking techniques and practical FPGA/embedded implementations. His background spans FPGA development (Zynq/VHDL), real-time embedded Linux, control systems, and ultra-low-power radio design from early academic projects. He completed a doctoral program at Tampere University and authored a PhD thesis on positioning systems, grounding his product work in rigorous research. Colleagues describe him as someone who bridges theoretical signal processing with hands-on prototyping—often squeezing complex tracking loops into tight hardware budgets. Based in Nuremberg, he combines startup pragmatism with institutional research experience to deliver deployable localization solutions.
