Title: Smart, Small, Safe Vision Systems for AAM

Bio: 
Dr. Niclas Mrotzek, Head of Camera Technologies, Kappa Optronics, studied and earned his doctorate at the Georg August University in Göttingen at the Institute for Astrophysics in the field of space weather research. His studies focused on the prediction of Earth-directed CMEs to protect satellites and airborne electronics. Since 2021, he has been responsible at Kappa for the development of VTOL camera systems in the areas of ATOL, DVE, and Surround view systems. The development focus is on the design and optimization of 24/7 vision systems for airborne applications.

Paul Staab, Head of V&V Department, Kappa Optronics, graduated from the University HAWK in Göttingen with a Master of Engineering in electrical engineering/engineering informatics. He started working at Kappa 10 years ago and was a founding member of the Verification and Validation department. For the past 5 years, Paul has been at the helm of the V&V department. The development of an automated test infrastructure as well as the efficient execution of the DO-178C process, were among the main activities during this time. As a V&V engineer, he has verified and validated several DO-178C DAL-D and DAL-C aviation vision systems and successfully lead the certification process.

Olaf Schultz, Business Development Manager Autonomous Flight, Kappa Optronics, studied Mechanical Engineering (bachelor’s degree) at the Düsseldorf University of Applied Sciences before he moved after two industrial sales positions into Aerospace and Defence. Since 1999 Olaf has been promoting several different technologies and services within A&D Markets, including Filtration Products, LED-Lighting, EMS, Electrical Connectors and now Smart Vision Systems for Aerospace applications. The main goal at Kappa is to form a new product family of Vision Systems to support the needs and requirements of the Autonomy within the AAM Industry.
