Biography
Craig Lindley works in the Computational Modelling team of CSIRO's Data61 business unit. He has recently been involved in the design and development of technology platforms for volumetric data management and process tracking, providing 3D visualisation, simulation, analytics, situation monitoring, diagnostics, alerting, and optimised rescheduling (applied in mining operations, mineral processing, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operations, and aerospace manufacturing).
His roles at CSIRO have included manager of the $50 million Data61 ICT laboratory in Hobart from 2012-2016, Research Director for Intelligent Sensing and Systems, Group Leader for Cognitive Systems, Team Leader for Cognitive Informatics, and Project Manager for numerous R&D projects.
Prior to this he has been a Professor and Research Leader at universities in Sweden, working with cognitive systems, AI, interactive 3D visualisation, simulation, human-machine interaction, and robotics. Before this, he initially worked in military software development as an RAAF Air Defence officer and software developer for radar tracking, command and control software systems development. He subsequently worked on the Australian Submarine Project, and has held senior research positions in Australia (CSIRO), Belgium (STARLAB NV/SA) and Sweden (The Interactive Institute, Uppsala and BTH). He has negotiated and led numerous collaborative research projects with industrial partners in aerospace, defence, ICT, mining and government.
Lindley has developed several rapid prototyping, robotics and psychophysiology laboratories, largely based upon additive and subtractive prototyping technologies and open source electronics systems. He has created and taught numerous undergraduate and masters degree courses in 3D systems development, interaction design, and rapid prototyping of novel devices and robotic systems.
