Summary
Michael Ortner is a robotics-focused software engineer with 12 years of hands-on experience in force-controlled and collaborative robot systems, currently applying his expertise at Convergent Information Technologies. He holds distinguished B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Mechatronics and Robotics and has implemented force/torque control on 6-DOF industrial robots, combining mathematical modeling in Maple, simulation in Matlab/Simulink, and deployment with Automation Studio. His background spans medical-device control algorithms, CAD and FEA work, and embedded gait-detection and muscle stimulation systems from an earlier Ottobock project. Comfortable at the intersection of theory and practice, he brings real-world troubleshooting skills gained from repairing cars and competitive jetski racing. Based in Wels, Austria, Michael blends rigorous academic training with practical system integration experience to deliver robust robotic control solutions.
