Biography

Alessandro Navone is a Ph.D. student in Electrical, Electronics, and Communication Engineering at Politecnico di Torino. He received a Master’s Degree in Mechatronic Engineering cum laude from Politecnico di Torino in 2022, with the thesis “Learning Odometric Error in Mobile Robots with Neural Networks.” He is currently conducting research in collaboration with the Interdepartmental Centre for Service Robotics – PIC4SeR (https://pic4ser.polito.it/).
His research interests include various applied technologies in precision agriculture, ranging from position-agnostic navigation within fields to precise early fruit tracking and counting, and plant health assessment. A particular focus is on the integration of lightweight machine learning techniques in real-time robotic systems.
