Adrian Arfire received his PhD in Robotics, Control, and Intelligent Systems from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) in 2016, with a thesis on “Mobile Sensor Networks for Air Quality Monitoring in Urban Settings”. During his thesis, he was in charge of the technical development and the management of the Lausanne wireless sensor network deployment for the Nano-Tera.ch OpenSense project – which strived at a better understanding of urban air pollution and its effect on citizen health by leveraging novel sensing technologies. Since 2017, he has joined the Metrology Laboratory of Airparif, where he is using his knowledge in distributed intelligent sensing systems to contribute to Airparif’s digital strategy and the adoption of novel sensing technologies. In particular, since 2019 he has has been the project manager of the AIRLAB Microsensors Challenge.
