Kasper Trolle Borup

Kasper Trolle Borup began their career in 2011 as an Engineering Intern at Oticon, where they worked on reprogramming and optimizing hearing aids for measurements at the Danish Roskilde Festival. In 2011, they also worked as a Teaching Assistant and Substitute Teacher at DTU Admission Course, assisting with an intensive physics course and substituting as a teacher. From 2011 to 2012, they worked as a Teaching Assistant at DTU Mechanical Engineering, where they were responsible for a study help program for first-year electrical engineering students.

In 2013, Borup joined NTNU as a PhD Candidate, focusing on developing low-cost navigation systems and nonlinear observer theory for estimating wind and vehicle velocity. Kasper Trolle'sresearch included both simulation and real experiments. In 2014, they worked as a Visiting Researcher at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where they contributed to the navigation systems for micro aerial vehicles intended for a Mars mission. This work involved programming in C++ and utilizing the Robot Operating System (ROS), as well as a deep understanding of mathematics.

In 2018, Borup took on the role of Innovation Post Doc at NTNU, where they focused on commercializing the research conducted during their PhD. This involved both theoretical aspects and business aspects necessary for bringing the research close to a sellable product. Finally, in 2019, Borup became the Chief Technology Officer at UBIQ Aerospace, where they currently hold a position.

Kasper Trolle Borup began their education in 2007 at DTU - Technical University of Denmark. Kasper Trolle pursued a Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, which they completed in 2011. Following this, they went on to pursue a Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) degree in Automation and Robot Technology at DTU from 2011 to 2013. In 2012, they attended Stanford University for a Summer school program in Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

In 2013, Kasper Trolle Borup enrolled at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), where they embarked on their doctoral journey. Kasper Trolle successfully completed their Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Cybernetics in 2018, marking the culmination of their formal education.
