Presentation

I got my Master of Science/Sivilingeniør degree at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in June 2006 within the field of Guidance, Navigation, Control and Robotics.

From August 2007 to March 2008 I was a visiting researcher at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Supervisor: Professor Zexiang Li

From March 2008 to April 2009 I was a visiting researcher at University of California Berkeley. I worked on a project with Post.Doc Vincent Duindam where we looked into modeling and control of robotic manipulators in a non-inertial reference frame, for example a robot on a ship or an oil-platform like the one in this video. The project was supervised by Professor Shankar S. Sastry. In addition I worked closely with Assistant Professor Pieter Abbeel.
