Roos has been a visiting fellow at the University of Cambridge, visiting researcher at MIT, UC San Diego, and USC, and a visiting postdoc at UC Berkeley. He serves on program committees of major international machine learning conferences including NeurIPS, ICML, and UAI. He has published over 50 peer reviewed scientific articles, and holds two international patents.
Roos has given invited talks at, e.g., Google, Apple, Microsoft Research, Stanford University, Yale, Purdue, Sorbonne, Club de Madrid, and UNESCO.
In the early 2000s, his work on wireless device positioning (more than 1000 scientific citations) was commercialized as the spinoff company Ekahau Inc. This led to a successful $100+ million exit in 2018 (acquired by Ookla/Ziff Davis).
