Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOmar Eldardeer is a postdoctoral researcher in cognitive robotics based in Genoa with 11 years of experience designing biologically inspired audiovisual perception systems for social and collaborative robots. At Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia he contributes to the VOJEXT European project, integrating neuromorphic and frame-based vision to improve social interaction, safety, and ergonomics. His PhD work produced a multimodal cognitive architecture for human-robot shared perception, and he has applied those models across platforms during visiting roles in Europe and Canada. Comfortable with sensor integration, robot vision and audition, and data analysis, he pairs deep technical fluency with strong communication and leadership honed in international research teams and startups. An uncommon thread through his career is translating biologically plausible models into deployable robotic modules that operate in real-world interaction scenarios.
