About

Ana Carina Coninch Perin is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on the design, simulation, and implementation of autonomous mobile robots for challenging outdoor environments. Her most cited paper, "Simulation and Implementation of an Autonomous Mobile Robot for Outdoor Competitions" (2020, 7 citations), details the complete development cycle of a robot built for the Brazilian "Trekking Pro" competition—a demanding open-field task requiring autonomous navigation through preset GPS coordinates. This contribution is significant for bridging the gap between theoretical simulation and real-world deployment in unstructured outdoor settings. By addressing the practical challenges of sensor integration, locomotion, and control in variable terrain, Perin’s work provides a valuable case study for researchers and students in field robotics and autonomous navigation. Her research is particularly relevant for advancing low-cost, robust robotic platforms capable of operating beyond controlled indoor labs, making her a notable figure in the growing area of outdoor competition robotics.
