About

Anthony Paul Roskilly is a leading researcher in the field of autonomous robotics, with a particular focus on developing practical, real-world solutions for industrial maintenance and inspection. His work centers on the design and control of specialized robotic systems capable of operating in challenging environments, such as underwater and on ship hulls. A key contribution is the development of the HISMAR autonomous robot, a system designed for cleaning ship hulls, which has garnered significant attention with 32 citations for its foundational paper. Roskilly has also advanced the field of control systems, notably through his work on a reduced-rule self-organizing fuzzy logic controller for water hydraulic applications, addressing the challenge of high rule generation in multi-variable systems. His research on underwater positioning sensors for crawling ship hull maintenance robots, cited 10 times, further demonstrates his commitment to enabling automation in tasks like cleaning and paint stripping, driven by the need to reduce costs, environmental hazards, and health risks to workers. Through these contributions, Roskilly has established himself as a key figure in the development of autonomous systems for industrial applications, impacting both the theory and practice of robotic maintenance.
