Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLukas Beyer is a graduate researcher in computer science at MIT with 12 years of hands-on experience building autonomy stacks for mobile robots, from forklifts and model cars to agile quadcopters. He focuses on trajectory planning for small, high-speed UAVs and multi-modal VTOL-fixed-wing vehicles, combining theoretical research with practical deployment on hardware. His background includes perception, localization, state estimation, CAN-bus integration, and bespoke path planners that exploit unusual vehicle dynamics. Comfortable moving between low-level driver development and higher-level planning, he is motivated to translate novel research into polished, robust products and user-friendly systems. Based in Cambridge, MA, he pairs rigorous academic training (BS and MEng from MIT) with a proven record of retrofitting and iterating complex mechatronic platforms.
