Przemysław Herman

Professor Przemysław Herman is a full Professor at Poznań University of Technology, affiliated with the Faculty of Automatic Control, Robotics and Electrical Engineering, specifically in the Institute of Automation and Robotics. His primary research focuses on control systems for robotic vehicles, particularly marine and underwater vehicles, with extensive work on trajectory tracking algorithms and quasi-velocities based control methods.

Professor Herman's research interests span Robotics, Control Systems, Marine Vehicles Control, Underwater Vehicles, Trajectory Tracking, and Quasi-Velocities Based Control. His work addresses complex challenges in controlling asymmetric underactuated vehicles, with special attention to horizontal motion dynamics and vehicles with shifted center of mass. He has developed specialized controllers for underwater vehicles, hovercrafts, and indoor airships, often validating his approaches through detailed numerical simulations.

His publication record shows a consistent research trajectory from 2001 through 2025, with recent publications focusing on advanced control algorithms for marine vehicles. Professor Herman has supervised two doctoral dissertations and reviewed three others, demonstrating his role in mentoring the next generation of researchers in robotics and control systems.

Professor Herman's research has significant applications in marine robotics, autonomous systems, and vehicle control engineering. His work on applying underwater vehicle controllers to hovercraft systems demonstrates the cross-platform applicability of his research contributions.
