Matthew Csencsits has worked as a software engineer for several companies since 2004. Matthew began their career as a Graduate Research Assistant at Clemson University, where they developed an intuitive, joystick-based operator interface for continuum robot manipulators. Matthew also constructed a new approach to compute forward and inverse kinematics for continuum robot manipulators and implemented a greedy potential field path planner. In 2008, they joined QinetiQ North America as a Senior Software Engineer and Staff Software Engineer, where they reduced repair costs and downtime by creating software to perform 3d visualization and simulation of rigid-link manipulator motion given Denavit-Hartenberg parameters. Matthew also implemented a semi-autonomous, point-and-click grasping feature on Oceaneering’s Terabot Manipulator for casualty evacuation utilizing a Videre stereo-camera. In 2013, they joined Caterpillar Inc. as a Software Engineer, and in 2016, they became a Principal Software Engineer at Mine Vision Systems.

Matthew Csencsits obtained their Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering from Clemson University between 2000 and 2004. Matthew then went on to pursue a Master's Degree in Computer Engineering with a focus on Intelligent Systems at Clemson University, which they completed between 2005 and 2007.
