Albert Pumarola

Albert is a Spanish Computer Science student at the Barcelona Tech (UPC). Currently he is doing his final degree project related to cognitive architecture and general purpose service robots.

His experience in the field of robotics are: vision are planners. He has already published two scientific publications: “Controlling a General Purpose Service Robot By Means Of a Cognitive Architecture” & “Using a Cognitive Architecture for General Purpose Service Robots Control”.

Within the MAiR @UPC team, he is currently working on the study and implementation of robot task planners and robot perception systems.

Edgar Riba Pi

Edgar is a Geomatics and Civil Surveying Engineer, Informatics Engineering student and currently at the last year of the MSc. in Automatic Control and Robotics at the Barcelona Tech (UPC).

He is currently working on his master's thesis at the Institut de Robòtica i Informàtica Industrial (Barcelona, Spain) implementing a PnP approach for a robotics application.

His interests are do research in the computer vision and machine learning fields in to detect and recognize rigid objects and estimate its pose using some cutting-edge techniques.

Karla Andrea Trejo Ramírez

Karla is a Mexican Mechatronic Engineer, currently studying a MSc. in Automatic Control and Robotics at the Barcelona Tech (UPC) granted by the Mexican Government through CONACyT.

She is currently working in her master’s final project related to Active Appearance Models for People Recognition with Kinect at ESAII department.

Within the MAiR @UPC team, she is currently dealing with the study and implementation of novel methodologies in human perception for robots, people tracking and related tasks.
