Roman Dvořák is an embedded systems developer with 14 years of experience building avionics, sensors, and control software for UAVs and scientific instruments from Prague. He designs mechanical and electronic systems for extreme-weather unmanned autogyros and contributes to the PX4 Autopilot project, adding sensor drivers and airframe support—work that directly enabled ThunderFly's TF-G2+ platform. Comfortable across hardware and firmware, he has delivered control software for telescopes, radiation detector platforms, and PV measurement equipment while also designing custom mechanical parts. An advocate of open source, he both extends established projects and publishes tooling to solve niche problems encountered in the field. Beyond engineering, his interests in astronomy and photography inform a rigorous, measurement-driven approach to instrument design and testing.
