The local TV show: University and Society, made a documentary about my work developed within
the cooperation project between the National University of San Juan, Argentina, and the University
of Porto, Portugal. The documentary can be seen at the following link:

aprox.).
an article
A Brain-Computer Interface Design for
Mobile Robot Navigation (my master degree thesis).
About me
I feel very comfortable working with interdisciplinary research groups. For example, I have
worked with biologists during a research about ants behavior and their exploration
techniques (I have two conference articles in this area, entitled:
a Mobile Robot and Harvest activity and termal threshold of Acromyrmex Lobicor
,
herein), and with bioengineers and psychologists during my work with Human Machine
Interfaces. I have been working with psychologists because we were studying how the biofeedback is related with the cognitive process of individuals that present some kind of
physical disability.
Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María, with whom I started the research group GRAI
(in Spanish: Grupo de Robótica Autónoma e Industrial; in English: Autonomous and
Industrial Robotics Research Group). We have one common research project with the
Universidad Federal do Espírito Santo, Brazil, two master students and around ten
graduation students.
on research with the following Professors: Giulio
Reina (Università de Salento, Italy), Karl Iagnemma (MIT, USA), José Guivant (University
of New South Wales, Australia) and Miguel Torres-Torriti (Pontificia Universidad Católica
de Chile). I also maintain active collaboration with Argentina, Brazil and Portugal.
