Valentina developed core robotics control features for the IITA-Proyectos/RoboCupJunior-Soccer-Open-League-2025 repository, focusing on reusable hardware abstraction and precise autonomous movement. She engineered a C++ library for Arduino-based embedded systems, enabling consistent sensor and motor control across robot versions. Her work included time-based rotation, angle-driven positioning, and calibration utilities, all designed to improve reliability and repeatability in competition scenarios. By refining timing calculations and integrating robust serial communication, Valentina addressed both movement precision and safety. She also resolved a key bug in ball-chasing logic, demonstrating depth in both feature development and troubleshooting within embedded robotics and motor control domains.

June 2025 performance snapshot for IITA-Proyectos/RoboCupJunior-Soccer-Open-League-2025: Delivered a time-based rotation feature (giro-por-tiempo-del-robot) enabling precise autonomous turns. Implemented a new module to compute rotation duration and established a basic serial motor-control flow using Zircon library, with initial integration into the control stack. Addressed motor movement safeguards to prevent actions outside intended function, enhancing reliability in dynamic match scenarios. This work is backed by two commits (6e5cd4786a15a2a9bd5f64d6d87c6e716a8c7488 and 852f60ffdfc7c725dab4cf56046461df535bd3fe) and sets the foundation for higher-level maneuvering and strategy deployment.
