About

Greg Rossano is a leading researcher in the field of industrial robotics and heavy machinery automation, with a particular focus on solving complex, high-risk maintenance challenges. His work centers on developing specialized robotic systems for confined spaces and extreme environments, where human access is dangerous or inefficient. A major contribution is his design of a modular, reconfigurable air-gap crawler for the in-situ inspection of motors and generators, a system that adapts to various machine geometries and has garnered 9 citations for its innovative approach to predictive maintenance. Rossano also tackled the formidable task of automating tire changes for large mining vehicles, proposing a novel robotic parallel platform that replaces a hazardous manual operation typically requiring a team of 2-10 workers. This work, cited 2 times, addresses critical safety and efficiency bottlenecks in the mining industry. Through these projects, Rossano demonstrates a clear commitment to deploying intelligent automation where it can have the greatest impact on worker safety and operational reliability.
