Hi, my name is Andrew Texeira. I am a rising junior who attends the University of Rhode Island during the school year. I am at USF for a summer undergraduate research experience and look forward to enhancing both my technical and professional skills. I have been working on robots since the second semester of my freshman year, and from that point on, I have programmed and designed a handful of robots, from wheeled land robots to a robotic hand that plays rock, paper, scissors. I enjoy seeing all the advancements being made in the field of robotics and hope to contribute in a way that helps humanity meaningfully.
I am excited to be a part of the RARE Lab this summer and look forward to furthering my knowledge of robotics.
