Short Bio

Rudolf Reiter graduated 2016 with a Master’s degree in electrical engineering with a focus on control systems from the Graz University of Technology in Austria. During that time he did internships at Bernecker & Rainer (ABB) and an exchange semester at the University of Utah, USA. Afterwards, he joined an international company for measurement devices (Anton Paar GmbH) where he worked as a specialist for control systems and signal processing. In 2018 he started working as a researcher for autonomous driving at a vehicle research company. There he also joined the Autonomous Racing Graz team, which competes at real-world autonomous racing events and where he still is an active member.

Current Position

Rudolf Reiter is part of the ELO-X Marie Curie Innovative Training Network (ITN), which was funded by the European Commission Horizon 2020 program.
