Niklas Persson, Lecturer
I am a lecturer at the Department of Engineering Sciences, mainly teaching within the Robotics program. I received a PhD in electronics from Mälardalen University in 2026 and an M.Sc. in Robotics from Mälardalens University in 2019.
My research interests lie within robotics and autonomous vehicles in general. This includes control methods for the vehicle's sensors and electronics, algorithms, and embedded systems. I have a practical focus and enjoy validating algorithms through real-world experiments rather than relying solely on simulation.
