About

J. Estevez-Carreon is a robotics and control systems researcher whose work centers on the design and implementation of advanced control strategies for autonomous mobile robots. Best known for pioneering contributions to two-wheeled self-balancing robot (TWSBR) technology, Estevez-Carreon has made significant strides in bridging sophisticated control theory with practical, accessible robotic platforms. A defining hallmark of their research is the application of Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) and robust nonlinear control techniques, tackling the inherently unstable inverted pendulum dynamics of TWSBRs without relying on conventional linearization assumptions — a notable departure from standard approaches in the literature. Estevez-Carreon has also championed the integration of the Robot Operating System (ROS) into control architectures, developing open, modular frameworks that facilitate seamless communication between sensors, actuators, and processing units. This emphasis on accessibility extends to educational robotics, with low-cost designs intended to bring advanced concepts to students and emerging researchers. Their most-cited work, "ADRC Attitude Controller Based on ROS for a Two-Wheeled Self-Balancing Mobile Robot" (2023, 12 citations), exemplifies this philosophy. Collectively accumulating over 27 citations across four key publications, Estevez-Carreon represents a growing voice in intelligent, robust robotics research.
