Robotics & Automation Consultant

ROS2, SLAM & Hardware Integration

Hi, I’m Kenneth, and I enjoy working on complex, high‑tech projects where software and hardware come together. With more than 20 years of experience in industrial automation and robotics, I have extensive domain knowledge:

  • Robotics & ROS2: path planning, SLAM, sensor fusion, and hardware integration (LiDAR, cameras, IMUs).
  • Industrial automation: PLC systems, Arduino, lab automation, embedded controllers, and production optimization.
  • 3D applications: 3D analysis, object recognition in point clouds and CAD, 3D printing, 3D tool path calculation. Knowledge of DevDept Eyeshot, PCL, ThreeJS.

Thanks to my years of experience and my aerospace engineering education at TU Delft, I can take on projects that go beyond the capabilities of the average engineer.

Senior Portfolio BagDrop - SITA

Kenneth wrote and implemented the algorithms for image analysis of 3D point cloud images. This allowed our automated bag drop systems to detect tubs and filter out non-conveyable items which passengers have dropped off . We have been very satisfied with his work and general enthusiasm! Kenneth is not only capable of designing and implementing a technical solution, he can also explain very well to others why he has chosen a certain approach..

Chief Teelor Officer

I first got acquainted with Kenneth 3 years ago when I was looking for a freelance software engineer for a difficult project at one of my clients. The client was immediately convinced after the interview, Kenneth did an awesome job and managed to give non-technical people insight on what problems he was solving. Since then I have had the privilege to work with him on various projects and clients. The result was/is always the same, positive feedback on both his technical and communication skillset.

Sr Manager R&D/Principal software scientist at Thermo Fisher Scientific

Kenneth had the task to help create some prototype software which had to be up and running in two months time. Through dedicated work and a flexible attitude, combined with his technical skills and ability to learn quickly, he managed to pull this off. Besides that, he is a nice guy to work with too!
