About

Jens Eliasson is a leading researcher in swarm robotics and wireless sensor networks, with a focus on enabling precise, low-cost relative localization for multi-robot systems. His work bridges the gap between theoretical swarm intelligence and practical deployment, particularly for aerial and ground-based robotic swarms. Eliasson’s most notable contributions include the development of a lightweight, omnidirectional relative localization sensor using Ultra-wideband (UWB) radio technology, which has garnered 13 citations for its potential to revolutionize coordinated task execution in unknown environments. He also pioneered a distributed framework for 3D swarming applications, cited 12 times, addressing challenges in autonomous mapping, environmental monitoring, and disaster response. Additionally, his integration of computer vision with UWB ranging for flying robot formation control (10 citations) has advanced the precision and reliability of inter-robot positioning. Eliasson’s work is characterized by its practical impact, offering scalable solutions for in-flight wireless sensor networks and formation control. His research is essential reading for students and engineers interested in the intersection of robotics, communication systems, and autonomous coordination, providing foundational tools for the next generation of intelligent swarms.
