Currently a researcher at UTC
Hardware.
Software.
Everything between.
Computer Engineering student from UTFPR, currently at UTC in France, working on autonomous navigation, human-machine interaction, conflict detection, trajectory evaluation, and intelligent control.
Working stance
From research to real systems.
I work across embedded systems, IoT, machine learning, Linux, Python, ROS, autonomous vehicles, and operational software. My current research at UTC combines intention modeling, nonlinear model predictive control, and ROS 2 implementation for conflict detection and decision-making in autonomous vehicles.
