Arne Peters, M.Sc.

Curriculum Vitae

Arne Peters studied computational visualistics at the University of Koblenz from 2010 to 2016. He wrote his Master's thesis on Detection of Unknown, Convex Objects in multi-view RGB-D Data at KUKA robotics in Augsburg. After reaching his M.Sc. degree he joined the Chair of Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and Real-time Systems at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), where he is currently researching on computer vision for robotic application. While his works include navigation and manipulation, motion planning, 3D reconstruction and human-robot interaction, his major focus lies on the developing self-calibrating systems, aiming to bring robots one step closer to full autonomy.
