Presentation Description
Speaker Biography
Jianfei Chen received PhD degree in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Mechanical Engineering at University of Missouri-Kansas City in 2019, where his research focused on aerial-ground sensing networks. After graduating, he worked in the industry for a couple of different projects related the Small Unmanned Aerial System (sUAS), including sUAS swarm control, sUAS autonomous precision landing, and sUAS beyond-line-of-sight operation.
He joined Applied Research for Mobility Systems group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 2022 as Postdoctoral Research Associate. There his research focuses on X-in-the-loop (XIL) simulation for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). Currently he is working on Vehicle Technologies Office (Department of Energy) funded project Real-Sim, where he develops a framework to bridge vehicle dynamic simulation software, visualization tool, and vehicle perception stack to complete the XIL simulation.
