Carmelo Mineo received a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Palermo (Italy) in 2011. In 2012, he joined the Centre for Ultrasonic Engineering of the University of Strathclyde (Glasgow, UK) to undertake his doctoral studies on the automated, non-destructive inspection of large and complex geometries of composite materials. He became a Research Associate of the University of Strathclyde in 2015 and a Research Fellow in 2018. Carmelo was awarded a prestigious H2020 Marie Curie Fellowship in 2020, funded by the European Commission, to lead research on Robotic Adaptive Behaviours for NDT Inspections in Dynamic Contexts at the University of Palermo. He has been a Researcher at the Institute of High-Performance Computing and Networking of the National Research Council of Italy since 2020. His current research interests comprise intelligent and autonomous robotics, advanced robot control for real-time adaptive path planning, instrument and sensor interfacing, and data collection and processing.
