Luis Valentín-Coronado, PhD, received his Bachelor degree (2005) in Electronic Engineering at the Instituto Tecnológico de Celaya (ITC), his Master degree (2009) in Electrical Engineering at the Universidad de Guanajuato (UG) and his PhD (2014) in Computer Science at the Centro de Investigaciones en Matemáticas (CIMAT A.C.). Between August to December 2012, he did an internship at the Coordinated Science Laboratory of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaing.
As of February 2015, he became a postdoctoral researcher at the Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica Óptica y Electrónica (INAOE). During his postdoctoral research stay he was part of the service robots team of the computer science department at INAOE. He also was part of the first Mexican team to participate International Micro Air Vehicle competition (IMAV) 2016, held in Beijing, China where we won 2nd Place.
In 2017 he joined to the Centro de Investigaciones en Óptica (CIO) as a CONACyT Fellow researcher. He is member of the Solar Energy Research and Engineering Group (GIIE-Sol) where his is working on robotics applied to the solar energy.
