Ana is a robotics researcher at the Robotics & Autonomous Systems unit of the Department of Mechanics of the Belgian Royal Military Academy. Her research focuses on the development of AI and robotic solutions applied to UAVs.

She received her BEng in Electronics, Robotics and Mechatronics from the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería (Universidad de Sevilla) in 2020 and her Master’s Degree in Artificial Intelligence from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid in 2022.

While she was finalizing her Bachelor studies, she started working at Vertical Engineering Solutions SRL where she was in charge of the development of software algorithms for the autonomous control and perception of UAVs, which included not only the programming of set algorithms but also the integration of sensors and actuators in the system.

In 2022, Ana joined the Belgian Royal Military Academy to participate in the HADRON project that aims to render the use of drones easier for pilots, through the development of robotic and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.
