From 2012 to 2014, I served as a Teaching Tutor in the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering at the University of Limerick. My responsibilities included tutoring and assisting in courses such as Multimedia Communications, TCP/IP Networking, Computer Networks and Protocols (including lab sessions), and Computer Networks 1 with accompanying labs.

He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Limerick, Ireland, where he successfully defended his thesis and completed his viva voce exam in 2018. His doctorate focused on A Design Exploration of an IoT-Based Smart Parking Prototype with Stakeholders Using User-Centred Design, highlighting his expertise in the intersection of IoT and human-centered technology solutions. His main research interests span IoT, computer networks, computer vision, and autonomous vehicles, reflecting his dedication to advancing intelligent systems for real-world applications.     

Dr. Fraifer has contributed significantly to the field, publishing research articles and achieving an h-index of 7, with nearly 299 citations on Google Scholar, showcasing the impact of his scholarly work. Over the years, he has authored and co-authored more than 10 peer-reviewed research articles and 2 book chapters .

Currently, he is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Blended Autonomy Vehicles with Lero, where his research focuses on object detection for autonomous payload perception, a critical aspect of enhancing automation in industrial and logistics environments. As part of his work, he has been actively involved in the Blended Autonomy Vehicles (BAV) project, specifically leading research on Autonomous Payload Perception Systems – A Technical Feasibility Exploration, which is funded by Lero SFI and Combilift.

His scientific contributions and research insights have also gained recognition beyond academia, as evidenced by coverage in Silicon Republic as part of the Science Uncovered series, further underscoring his influence in the field of autonomous systems and IoT-driven innovations. here.
