About the Authors
Jonathan Cacace was born in Naples, Italy, on 13 December 1987. He holds a Bachelor’s and Master’s of Science in Computer Science from University of Naples “Federico II”. Later he joined the PhD program of the same institution, earning the title of Philosophiae Doctor in Automation and Computer Engineering in 2016.
During his research career, he had the chance to participate and lead various applied research projects focused on robotics, funded by the European Union. This allowed him to explore several areas of robotics, from robot manipulation to navigation. After completing his PhD, he continued to divide his work between scientific research and applied robotics, participating in more than 50 scientific publications in the flagship robotics conferences and scientific journals. He also collaborated as a private consultant for different startups based in Europe.
