About Dimiter Driankov
Dimiter Driankov received BSc in Mathematics (1973) and MSc in Computer Science (1975) from the University of Sofia, Faculty of Mathematics, Sofia, Bulgaria. He received PhD in Computer Science from the Linköping University in 1988. In 1999 he became a Docent at the Dept. of Computer and Information Science, Linköping University. Since 2001 he is a professor in Computer Science at the School of Science and Technology, Örebro University. and, since 2002 he is the director of the Center for Applied Autonomous Sensor Systems. During 1990 - 1997 he was a visiting researcher at Siemens Corporate R & D, Munich, Germany working on industrial applications of fuzzy logic and control. During 2000-2003 he was a visiting professor with the Wallenberg Lab for Information Technology and Autonomous Systems (WITAS) at Linköping university working on the flight control system for a unmanned helicopter. He is one of the co-founders of Robotdalen (VINNOVA/VINNVÄXT innovation initiative) which is the largest Swedish effort in the field of robotics and, since its beginning in 2003, he is responsible for the Robotdalen's work in field robotics.
