Engineering
autonomous systems.
Real problems. Real solutions.
Montyforge is an autonomous systems engineering practice run by Antonio Montero. Drones, robotics, and control systems — built end to end, fielded, iterated, and shipped to people who actually use them.
I build autonomous systems that actually leave the workshop. Spanish robotics engineer, professional drone pilot, now based in Norway — building drones, controllers, and mechatronic systems for defense, industrial, and offshore operators.
A portfolio of
fielded systems.
Adaptive payload release mechanism for drones. 5 kg capacity, any payload shape, <100 ms deployment. Fielded with Scandinavian Drone Company for offshore resupply in the North Sea.
View project →Developed in collaboration with AEROMEDIA. Field-tested on Spanish beaches for coastal maritime safety — rapid aerial deployment from drone platforms.
Read case study →No hype. No theater. Engineered work, honestly presented. Every system here has hit dirt, water, or air. Prototypes that never leave the CAD file don't count.
Full-stack autonomy,
hardware to flight code.
Mechatronic design
CAD, FEA, DFM. Payload mechanisms, frames, actuation — designed to be manufacturable, not just printable.
Flight & motion control
PID tuning, state estimation, sensor fusion. ROS & PX4 stacks. Real-time guarantees on embedded targets.
Perception & planning
LiDAR/EO fusion, A* & RRT planners, obstacle avoidance. On-device inference — no cloud round-trip.
Antonio Montero.
Spanish robotics engineer, professional drone pilot. Moved to Norway to work on autonomous systems in one of the most demanding operating environments in the world.
Degree in Robotics and Control Systems. University was the theory; the real education came from personal projects, failed prototypes, and field iterations. Currently developing systems with Scandinavian Drone Company and deploying applications for offshore operations in the North Sea.
I don't sell vision decks. I ship systems — and I want to work with people who are building real things at the edge of what's possible.
Let's build
something real.
Open to collaboration, investment, and conversations with builders working on hard autonomous-systems problems. Based in Stavanger, traveling when the work demands it.
