Summary
Michał Drwięga is a Senior Computer Vision & AI Engineer and PhD robotics specialist with 11 years of hands-on experience delivering field-tested autonomous systems spanning underwater mapping, autonomous vehicle perception, and multi-robot coordination. He combines deep expertise in SLAM, distributed control, ROS 2 architecture, and 3D reconstruction with practical systems engineering in C++, Python, and simulation toolchains (Isaac Sim, Gazebo, Unity). His work has moved from academic research to industrial deployments—leading an industry-leading sonar-based underwater mapping solution and contributing safety-critical components to Autoware.Auto. As an assistant professor he teaches ROS 2, graph optimization and supervises student theses, bridging research rigor with product delivery. Notably, he has integrated low-level ROS 2 middleware into Unity simulators and built ML-driven 3D reconstruction pipelines, reflecting a knack for uniting simulation, perception, and real-world validation. Based in Lower Silesia, Poland, he excels at turning complex sensor data into reliable, operational autonomy.
