Crypto Market Arbitrage

Market arbitrage is a financial strategy that involves taking advantage of pricing discrepancies in different markets. This practice requires an investor to buy and sell assets simultaneously in different markets to benefit from price differentials. The goal of market arbitrage is to generate profit by exploiting inefficiencies in the market. The aim of this is to find some basic discrepancies in certain crypto markets, when passing from one currency to another using their apis, and to see the times when profit is achievable.

ROS MoveIt/CoppeliaSim interaction

This project was an effort from a team of 4 in the development of a methodology for the implementation of ROS with existing lab equipment including the UR5e, and some of the work cells that were available on the Automation and Industrial Manufacturing Lab from Anahuac University. Different simulations were performed with different parameters, sensors, and different data was transmitted. The framework allowed the connection of ROS with the physical Robot and a virtual twin. An extra effort was given in the complete documentation of the whole process for future reference by the lab administrators. Data could be sent and read from the robot using ROS allowing the creation of more complex work cells in the future.

Mandible 3D scan and print

Through the use of a tomography, the aim is to create a three-dimensional model of a jaw, in order to help dentists to be able to perform dental surgeries before carrying them out on real patients, in addition to the creation and analysis of jaw prostheses.

Flexible Robotics Workcell

In this project a team of 3 worked in programming a manual flexible workcell using the MRL programming language. By receiving a different input a different output for the Robot was generated. Depending on the previous steps and state only some actions can be done. Upon advancing the manufacturing of the work piece different flags are activated showing a led indicator. The idea of this project was allowing the usage of HMIs in conjunction with a robot.

Assembly Line

This is a simulation of a workcell focusing on assembling a piece, made up of a lid and a base. The conveyor bands work in an asynchronous manner, so sensors must be used and programmed to determine the correct time the lid should be picked and placed on the base. A counter of the amount of items assembled is also part of the workcell. The amount of pieces can be limited just by changing a variable in the program, and the process can be stopped in case of an emergency. If no problem arises the process may continue indefinitely. This cell was programmed both with FactoryIO FBD and with the LOGO! FBD.

Pick & Place XYZ

This is a simulation of a workcell focusing on stacking boxes on groups 3 in a pallet. One of the actuators used in the workcell is a pick & place actuator with 3 axis and a analog configuration, that’s the challenge of this workcell. The project was done using FactoryIO’s Function Block Diagram (FBD). The main purpose of this team project was managing multiple bands counters and sensors at the same time and the analog actuators in a combinational system of Industrial Automation.
