About me
Truly the light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun; But if a man lives many years and rejoices in them all, yel let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Allthat is coming is vanity.
Project Leader & Researcher
It's time to rethink the way we make technology our ally. It is necessary to think of technology as an art. And art is something changeable, without limits, without owners.

- Degree: Master
Senior Engineer and Researcher with more than 20 years of experience in industrial project management and R&D, including the implementation of two automobile plants in Brazil as well as in steel making and power generation. Develops robotic and manipulator tool designs, autonomous vehicle system, asset management, RCM, TPM, reliability and maintenance of critical equipment, and evaluation in FMEA application. In recent 10 years he has worked in development robotic projects.
Facts
A project can be difficult due to reasons such as cost, time and people, but that does not automatically mean that the project is complex. A complex project is not necessarily a difficult project. Complexity refers to projects that include ambiguity or uncertainty. They are surrounded by unpredictability. But the facts show how far they can be developed.
Skills
Changes are commonplace nowadays. This new reality has impacts on both individual and professional life, so it is necessary for the professional to develop skills in this new coming and going of humanity. Skills are expressions of know-how.

Projects
The projects are expressions of the individual's imaginary vision, they are directly related to the sensations and emotions experienced. Below is a list of projects that were conceived based on these parameters that are so individualized and at the same time so comprehensive in their conception, always pursuing a more humanist vision of knowing how to do.

- Industrial
- Academic
In addition, there is a Youtube channel with some of the activities that have been developed.

The Fellows
Jump over the void. Jump from peak to peak. Don't be afraid of the fall.
That's how science was built, built. Not for the prudence of those who march, but for the daring of those who dream.
For the daring of having a crazy idea. And it is these ideas that dance in the heads of those who dare to think differently. Make the difference.
Those who are here, were or still are fertile ground for the words arising from my thoughts. They were or are researchers led by my motivating whispers. And just like them, I am the words that others planted in me.
I am the gap between my desire and what the desire of others has made of me.

Research Lines
The study and development of technologies related to robotics continues to be a very relevant topic in the field of science and technology.
The evolution of this technology involves the interdisciplinarity of engineering: electrical, electronics, mechanics and automation (noting that there is still no robotics engineering). Often understood as multidisciplinary, these engineering ends up not understanding the nuances of the Robotics theme; therefore, complementarity is a crucial fact for a good understanding and assimilation of the technologies involved, showing that engineering must be overlapped and not partitioned.
Understanding this concept is fundamental for the implementation of competence and its parameters.
Mobile Robotics
Creatively present diversities of application in robotic platforms to be used on national soil.
Manipulators
This line of research is focused on developing solutions for trajectory planning that suffer disturbances at the base of the manipulators.
Reliability
In this research, the aim is to autonomously implement reliability concepts aiming at fault tolerance in robotic systems.
