Ian Baldwin is a member of the Robotics and Mobility group. He has recently completed his D.Phil in Engineering Science at Oxford university, where his research focused on the development of localization techniques for large-scale, long-term autonomous vehicle operation. Currently his work is focused on leveraging the capabilities of extreme-terrain vehicles for advanced mission capabilities. In addition to robust estimation and perception, his interests include the application of lifelong-learning approaches to robotics problems in general.
