Hey! I'm Rodrigo

Doctoral Candidate @TU Delft

I'm Rodrigo Pérez-Dattari, a roboticist interested in every aspect of robotic decision-making.

I'm currently completing my doctoral studies at the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands. Here, my work has primarily focused on developing methodologies to enhance the learning of motion policies, aiming for greater flexibility, efficiency, and reliability.
