Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOliver Rettig is a physicist and software engineer with over 15 years of experience developing biomechanics and life-science applications, specializing in upper-extremity and clinical gait analysis. Holding a PhD from Universität Heidelberg, he combines end-to-end product work—from requirements and specification to Java/Matlab/Python implementation and expert support—with long-standing academic research roles. As a postdoctoral researcher and project lead at DHBW Karlsruhe he focuses on geometric algebra, robot calibration, human-robot collaboration, and modern control methods such as MPC, recently implementing IK/DK, RNEA and collision detection pipelines. He runs independent software and R&D activities through Motion-Science and has led commercial software projects for more than two decades, bringing both researcher rigor and product-minded delivery. His unusual blend of deep theoretical knowledge (conformal geometric algebra) and practical algorithm implementation makes him adept at translating complex motion-analysis research into robust, deployable tools. Based in Karlsruhe, he actively explores deep learning for movement prediction and anomaly detection alongside precision robotics applications.
