His work explores core challenges in AI and machine learning to enable robots to robustly and effectively operate in complex, real-world environments. Ingmar and his team explore a number of intellectual challenges at the heart of robot learning, such as machine introspection in perception and decision making, data efficient learning from demonstration and the learning of complex tasks via a set of less complex ones. All the while Ingmar’s intellectual curiosity remains grounded in real-world robotics applications such as autonomous driving, logistics, manipulation and space exploration. In 2014, Ingmar co-founded Oxbotica, a leading provider of mobile autonomy software solutions.
