  Bio
  Jonathan's main interest is in the area of Field Robotics and in particular making machines operate autonomously outdoors in unstructured environments. His formal training was in the area of Aerospace Systems including control systems, aerodynamics, power systems, communications, and aircraft and space craft design. He graduated from the University of Southampton with an Honours degree in Aerospace Systems Engineering in 1991. Jonathan furthered his interest in computer vision while completing a PhD (1991-1994) at the University of Southampton where he also developed skills in parallel computing.

In 1995 Jonathan joined CSIRO to work in the area of Mining Robotics and has since then worked on numerous large robot machines including 3,500 tonne draglines, 30 tonne underground haul trucks and autonomous underground explosive loading vehicles. More recently he has taken on the role of Science Leader - Robotics. Jonathan is currently President of the Australian Robotics & Automation Association Inc.
