Andreas Nüchter holds an assistant professorship of
Computer Science at Jacobs University Bremen. Before he
joined Jacobs he was a research associate at University of
Osnabrück. Further past affiliations were with the
Fraunhofer Institute for Autonomous Intelligent Systems
(AIS, Sankt Augustin), the University of Bonn, from which he
received the diploma degree in computer science in 2002
(best paper award by the German society of informatics (GI)
for his thesis) and the Washington State University. He
holds a doctorate degree (Dr. rer. nat) from University of
Bonn. His thesis was shortlisted for the EURON PhD
award. Andreas works on robotics and automation, cognitive
systems and artificial intelligence. His main research
interests include reliable robot control, 3D environment
mapping, 3D vision, and laser scanning technologies,
resulting in fast 3D scan matching algorithms that enable
robots to perceive and map their environment in 3D
representing the pose with 6 degrees of freedom. The
capabilities of these robotic SLAM approaches were
demonstrated at RoboCup Rescue competitions, ELROB and
several other events. He is a member of the GI and the IEEE.
