I’m Mohamed Abdelaal, a Lead Robotics & AI Solutions Engineer with more than 12 years of experience in autonomous systems, UAVs, embedded hardware and industrial sensing. I connect hardware engineering with software intelligence to build systems that operate reliably in the real world.
At ZainTECH in Kuwait, my work spans enterprise drone operations, robotic inspection and automated spatial AI pipelines. A recent focus is a 100 km² revegetation programme using drone imagery and machine learning to track plant counts, survival and health.
I integrate LiDAR, Phase One imaging, thermal cameras, Sniffer4D gas sensors and water-sampling payloads with AI analytics. My field experience includes infrastructure mapping, confined-space inspections, underwater photogrammetry and precision agriculture.
My engineering practice includes ROS2, C++, Python, custom embedded hardware, NVIDIA Jetson edge computing, GIS automation and cloud data pipelines. I also work with LLMs, RAG, voice agents and model deployment when they support a clear operational need.
