Current research interests include: Robot and Vehicle Dynamics: Mathematical modeling of robots and vehicles, including multi-body systems, marine craft hydrodynamics, aerodynamics, and vehicle/vessel simulators. Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC): Autonomous and intelligent GNC systems for field robots, marine craft, aircraft, and unmanned vehicles (UAV, AUV, USV). Design of autopilots, trajectory tracking, and path-following control systems. #Attitude control #Path following Inertial Navigation System
As a Fulbright scholar at the University of Washington and visiting professor at globally renowned institutions like the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), University of California, San Diego (UCSD), University of Porto, Aalborg University, and the Technical University of Denmark, Professor Fossen has expanded the horizons of GNC systems for autonomous vehicles. He is a co-founder of Marine Cybernetics AS, now part of DNV, and ScoutDI AS , a company at the forefront of developing tethered drone
