Development of an autonomous rover for monitoring urban hydroponic gardens
Design of a mobile robot for monitoring environmental variables in urban vertical gardens. Equipped with humidity, temperature, and light sensors, with autonomous navigation capabilities in small agricultural environments.
Early warning system for forest fires using artificial vision and ROS
I developed a system in ROS 2 with YOLO to detect fire and people in real time. It calculated the level of risk based on proximity to the fire and generated automatic alerts, with a basic visualization interface. Rainwater Irrigation Project – Community Gardens
This project was carried out in collaboration with the Red de Huerteros y Huerteritos de Jamundí" and was supported by the Autonomous University of the West as a social impact initiative. https://www.uao.edu.co/ingenieria/construyendo-huertas-comunitarias- una-iniciativa-uao/
Development of a sensor network for a quadrupedal
robotic platform with ROS 2 and CAN communication
Design and implementation of a bio-inspired quadrupedal robotic platform for research into locomotion and perception. Integration of force sensors, IMU, camera, GPS, and electrical monitoring, among others, communicated via CAN Bus. Development of an interactive graphical interface in Python to visualize real-time data, camera images, and a 3D model of the robot using ROS 2.
