| My main research interests focus on the application of computer vision, cognitive science and control theory to advanced robotic and surveillance systems. Currently I'm involved in projects involving Humanoid Robots (Visual Attention, Foveal Vision, Model Based Tracking, Learning Affordances, Sensorimotor Coordination) and Surveillance Systems (Target Detection, Tracking and Identification, Human Activity Recognition).
| | I have been participating in many national and international projects involving both academic and industrial partners. The topics include Humanoid Robots, Service Robots, Surveillance Systems, Dexterous Manipulation, Traffic Monitoring, Modeling Mirror Neurons, among others.
