About me
Hi, I'm Raul Calatayud, I'm 22 years old. I was born in Alcoy, Spain and since I was a child I was always interested in everything related to technology, I spent my days in front of the computer, which eventually ended up creating my passion and made me study robotics engineering at the University of Alicante, where I was taught many things related to the world of programming, Artificial Intelligence and computer vision.
During my studies, I have worked on a variety of exciting projects, from a 2D and 3D image segmentation system using classical and machine-learning algorithms, to a robot swarm trajectory optimization project. But the project I am most proud of is my Final Degree Project, where I developed a drone for rescuing shipwrecked people at sea, using a vision system based on deep-learning to detect people. I am always looking for new challenges and learning that will allow me to increase my knowledge in these fields.
In addition to my work, I also love to practice sports, throughout my life I have practiced many kinds of sports: swimming, indoor football, running, contact sports, etc. Also, in my free time, I enjoy being with my friends and family, either in person or online when I am away from home. I believe it is important to maintain a balance between work and personal life, and I strive to maintain that balance at all times.
My Education
I applied to Robotics Engineering at the University of Alicante, which at that time was the only university in Spain that offered this degree. During my studies, I learned basic and advanced notions of a multitude of skills, such as programming, algorithms, computer vision, artificial intelligence, robot dynamics and kinematics, etc. I graduated in 2022 with a Bachelor's degree in Robotics Engineering and the highest grade in my thesis.
Throughout my academic career, I have completed several interesting projects, some of which I will showcase later in the projects section. I am proud to have completed my education and I am always looking for ways to keep learning and improving my skills.
