Personal profile
ShortBio
Dr. Arantxa Rentería has a doctor´s degree in Computer Engineering, (2010, U. of Deusto), an MSc in Robotics & Advanced Manufacturing Technologies (1988, Faculty of Engineering, Bilbao) and the degree in Computer Sciences (1987, University of Deusto). Since then, she has been working in Robotiker-Tecnalia in the field of robotics and automation, where she currently is Project Manager in the Health Division.
She has worked in many projects, both on research and on development of industrial systems. She has managed projects related to robotized cells, mobile robotics, data acquisition and monitoring systems, human-machine interfaces, robot simulation, automation for environmental engineering, robotic teleoperation (with two related patents). She has directed several post-graduate theses related to robotics and robot simulation applications. She has attended different Congresses, Symposiums and Seminars as a speaker, being author of many papers and a book on Robotics. She also worked as assistant professor of robotics during 1997-2000, at the University of Deusto in Bilbao.
Since 1989 she has been working in the preparation of several proposals for European and national programs. She has been involved in projects dealing with accessible applications and mobile robotics for cognitive rehabilitation, (COMPANIONABLE, HAPTIMAP, RUBICON), surgical robots (BROCA) and robotic telemanipulation.
