Cristobal Baray - Robotics Instructor

Courses

• Robotics

Cristobal has joint Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science and Cognitive Science completed while on a National Science Foundation robotics fellowship. His thesis work focused on the emergent behavior in multi-agent systems - specifically how communication systems benefit the agents. Out of school, he worked at a startup focused on natural language interfaces for wireless applications.

Currently, Cris is the engineering manager at Yahoo! Sports, enjoying the benefits of having to watch sporting events for "work". He develops realtime applications in Flash, allowing users to follow live games across the nation from their computers.

And now, with a 2 year old son, he's fully understanding the challenges that artificial intelligence research faces. "But that just makes it more fun!"
