ABOUT THE LECTURERS

Stjepan Bogdan, PhDEE, is Full Professor at the Laboratory for Robotics and Intelligent Control Systems (LARICS – https://larics.fer.hr/larics), Department on Control and Computer Engineering, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb (UNIZG-FER), where he teaches several courses in robotics and automation. From October 1st, 2022, he is appointed Vice-Dean for Research and Innovation at UNIZG-FER. His research interests include autonomous systems, aerial robotics, multi-agent systems, intelligent control systems, bio-inspired systems, and discrete event systems. He is a co-author of 4 books and has published more than 200 scientific papers. He was the Principal Investigator and a researcher on more than 30 national and international research projects. He served as an Associate Editor of several scientific journals and was a PC member and AE of major control and robotics conferences. He is IEEE senior member, and appointed member of IEEE Tech. Comm. on Intelligent Control and IEEE Tech. Comm. on Aerial Robotics. He was representative of Croatia at European Union Control Association (EUCA) and in H2020 Program committee on Space. He was Program Committee member of Horizon Europe Cluster 4 – Digital, Industry and Space. He spent 1996/1997 as a Fulbright scholar at Automation and Robotics Research Institute, The University of Texas at Arlington, under supervision of Prof. Frank Lewis.

Antonella Barišić Kulaš, M. Sc. is a researcher, Ph.D. student and project manager at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (UNIZG-FER). She obtained her Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from UNIZG-FER in July 2019. She spent one year working as research lead on NATO Science for Peace and Security project at University of New Mexico (UNM), New Mexico, USA, in Prof. Rafael Fierro's lab. During her studies, she held various positions, such as team leader and project manager, in the student association eSTUDENT, where she supervised various projects and coordinated collaborations with industry and academic partners.  Additionally, Antonella organized DroneDays, an aerial robotics end-user workshop, for three consecutive years, contributing significantly to the field’s community engagement and knowledge exchange. In 2018, she became one of the first recipients of the Laboratory for Robotics and Intelligent Control Systems (LARICS) scholarship. In 2019, she was awarded with the Rector’s Award for Individual Scientific Work.  Her research interests lie at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and deep learning. She is passionate about developing intelligent robotic systems that can understand their environment. As part of the LARICS team, she was responsible for Challenge 1 of the MBZIRC 2020 international robotics competition. Her contributions extend to the EU-funded projects EKOKOMVOZ and VirtualUAVs. Presently, she is engaged in the AeroSTREAM Horizon project and is preparing for the MBZIRC 2024 competition.
