Mohamed Abdelaal — Robotics and AI Solutions Engineer

About Me

Engineering intelligent systems for industry, infrastructure and the environment.

Where Robotic Hardware Meets Machine Intelligence

Based in Kuwait with ZainTECH’s Operations Drones and Robotics team, I design and deploy aerial, ground and underwater systems. My work combines embedded engineering, computer vision and automated spatial data pipelines.

From national revegetation monitoring to industrial inspections, I focus on systems that work reliably in the field.

My hands-on toolkit includes ROS2, C++, Python, NVIDIA Jetson, ArcGIS Pro and cloud platforms. I integrate LiDAR, thermal, multispectral and environmental sensors into complete engineering workflows.

I also mentor engineers and students, develop UAV training programmes and contribute to applied robotics research.
