About

Eva Besada is a researcher at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) whose work centers on open-source educational robotics and remote laboratory systems. Her key research areas include low-cost automation, teleoperation technologies, and accessible STEM education tools. Besada’s major contribution is the design and implementation of a remote laboratory for the Dobot Magician educational robotic arm, which allows students and researchers to control the robot over the Internet using the open-source ReNoLabs web server, programmed in Node.js. This system significantly lowers barriers to hands-on robotics experimentation by providing a low-cost, remotely accessible platform. Her most-cited paper, “Un laboratorio remoto de código abierto y bajo coste para el brazo robótico educativo Dobot Magician” (2022), has garnered 3 citations and exemplifies her commitment to democratizing robotics education. By integrating affordable hardware with freely available software, Besada enables broader participation in robotics research and learning, particularly for institutions with limited resources. Her work stands out for its practical, scalable approach to remote experimentation, making her a notable figure in the field of educational robotics and open-source laboratory development.
