RESEARCH PROFILE
Henk Nijmeijer is emeritus Full Professor at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and Chair of the Dynamics and Control group. Henk’s research focuses on Control Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Automotive Engineering. His areas of expertise include (advanced) control theory and systems, robotics, mechatronics, (system) dynamics and control systems engineering. The current project is 'Extremum seeking control in large-scale information systems.
Henk is also Program Leader of TU/e research program ‘Integrated Cooperative Automated Vehicles’ (i-CAVE). This focuses on development of Autonomous vehicles that can drive independently on non-public roads and drive together on public roads.
We are working full out on cooperative mobility and intelligent transport systems but we have to look even further ahead. Think out-of-the-box and incorporate every aspect
