He is actively enrolled in his two passion activities during college: Innovation , Robotics, Human-Machine Interaction, and Hardware Design.   As a University Innovation Fellow, Raul design I&E activities for the SpinOut I&E community. This community aims to develop creative confidence for UTEC students. From 2016, SpinOut UTEC has raised the I&E career of 80 students, and its members have developed 13 initiatives.  In SpinOut UTEC, I've participated in creating a pre-incubation program called "How might we start a startup?" with our university accelerator UTEC Ventures.  The HMW program teaches students to understand their users, identify problems, and Roboticsdevelop the mindsets to begin the entrepreneurial journey. After two years, the program impacted 70+ UTEC students (included the first UTEC startup made only by students: <nowiki>http://luteach.com</nowiki>) and 50+ students from other universities. Also, I have co-designed three awareness workshops: Moonshot Thinking, Virtual Design Thinking, and Aprendiendo con SpinOut. These workshops focused on promoting the importance of innovation in students' life and career. So far, you have noticed I really believe in the power of awareness in freshmen students, they are the ones that needed it the most! Eventually, I've also designed and facilitated more than 5+ workshops in other universities, companies and Government organizations in Peru (some examples are: Universidad Nacional Jorge Basadre Grohman, Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería, Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola, Universidad Científica del Sur, Univerisdad Privada del Norte, companies like Nexa and Entel and organizations as Municipalidad Metropolitana de Lima and Municipalidad de Barranco). Currently, I am working on designing study material for courses in my major while finisihing my Thesis. Nonetheless, check out the current work of SpinOut UTEC and our UIF UTEC family, they are really making some progress in I&E on campus.

In SpinOut UTECAs an electronics engineering student, Raul has I've participated in creating a pre-incubation program called "How might we start a startup?" with our university accelerator UTEC Venturesrobotics projects since his first year.  The HMW program teaches First, he wrote an academic paper about an educational approach for teaching freshmen students to understand their usersdevelop artificial intelligence games for a Delta Robot, identify problemsthis paper was presented on IEEE INTERCON 2018 in Lima. Then, and develop he participated in the mindsets creation of two low-cost animal-inspired robots which unfortunately did not succeed due to begin the entrepreneurial journeylack of resources and team capabilities. After two yearsHowever, since failure is part of the program impacted 70+ UTEC students (included process and success the consequences of learning, he participated as an embedded programer and leader in the first Capstone project between Purdue University and UTEC startup made only by students: <nowiki>http://luteach, this project aims to create collaborative wheeled robots for beach cleaning in Peru.com</nowiki>) The team accomplished to build a plastic bottle collector robot from scratch in four months, this robot has full closed-loop control and 50+ students from sensor fusion for localization, moreover the teams is currently working on providing semi-autonomous capabilities using computer vision algorithms. Since I wanted to explore other universities. Raul (Elmer) Escandon is a junior areas of expertise related to Electronics Engineering student at Universidad de Ingenieria y Tecnologia - UTEC , I have worked as Research Assistant in Limathe Embedded Systems Laboratory as part of a heritage conservation project, Peruevaluating if certain pieces are highly affected by climate conditions. He is actively enrolled in his two passion activities during college: Innovation On the other side, I've broadly researched the areas of Signals systems looking for new algorithms to detect arm movements using signals from our nerves, these projects have helped to detect fatigue conditions for rehabilitation procedures and Robotics.the implementation of more accurate prosthetic arms!
Furthermore, Raul co-designed three awareness workshops: Moonshot Thinking, Virtual Design Thinking, and Aprendiendo con SpinOut. These workshops focused on promoting the importance of innovation in students' life and career.
As an electronics engineering student, Raul participated in robotics projects since his first year. First, he wrote an academic paper about an educational approach for teaching freshmen students I am so excited to develop artificial intelligence games for a Delta Robot, this paper was presented on IEEE INTERCON 2018 in Lima. Then, he participated in the creation of combine my two low-cost animal-inspired robots which unfortunately did not succeed due to the lack of resources and team capabilities. Howeverpassions, since failure is part one taste of it was the process and success the consequences designing of learning, he participated as an embedded programer and leader in the Capstone project between Purdue University and UTEC, this project aims to create collaborative wheeled robots for beach cleaning in Peru. The team accomplished to build a plastic bottle collector robot from scratch in four months, this robot has full closed-loop control and sensor fusion for localization, moreover the teams is currently working on providing semi-autonomous capabilities using computer vision algorithms. Also, at the Mechatronics Laboratory, he design three robotics workshops for K-12 students and Open Day activities. Also, I am currently working on wearable devices to help physical therapists to acquire more information about their patients progress during their activities.
