Roderich Gross is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering at the University of Sheffield. He is also a Visiting Scientist at CSAIL, MIT, and leads the Enabling Technologies theme at Sheffield Robotics. His academic journey includes a Ph.D. in engineering science from Université libre de Bruxelles (2007), followed by postdoctoral fellowships as a JSPS Fellow (Tokyo Institute of Technology), Research Associate (University of Bristol), and Marie Curie Fellow (EPFL & Unilever).
- Research Interests: Swarm robotics, self-reconfigurable robots, multi-robot coordination, robotics software/tools (human-robot interaction interfaces, formal design tools), machine learning for behavior inference (Turing Learning, GANs), autonomous systems, natural computing (swarm intelligence, evolutionary algorithms).
- Scientific Contributions: Inventor of Turing Learning, a machine learning method for behavior inference. Key work includes swarm coordination, self-assembly, fault-tolerant quadcopters, energy-efficient drone delivery, and infrared-based swarm communication.
- Scientific Recognition: Held prestigious fellowships including JSPS and Marie Curie, and served as Associate Editor for leading robotics journals (IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, Swarm Intelligence) and conference roles (General Chair DARS 2016, Program Co-Chair GECCO 2018).
- Grants: Principal Investigator on Horizon Europe OpenSwarm (£463,699), EPSRC Core Capital (£104,196), DSTL Multi Robot Systems (£98,781), and industry-funded modular robotics projects.
- Labs: Affiliated with the Natural Robotics Lab at the University of Sheffield.
