Marcos Borges, PhD
Senior Research Engineer
For over 15 years, I have worked on autonomous systems for the medical, aerospace, and defense industries.
Today, I enjoy working across research and engineering, from understanding difficult problems and testing ideas to developing prototypes and production systems.
On this website, I share projects, experiments, technical notes, and topics I am currently learning or revisiting.
