Robotics & AI Researcher
Amirhosein Vedadi

I'm a robotics and ai researcher specializing in legged robotics, with expertise in model-based control, state estimation, and sensor fusion. My work focuses on developing advanced control algorithms and enhancing robot autonomy through machine learning and computer vision techniques.

Currently working as a Robotics & AI Engineer at Cheetah, where I lead the development of Forward Collision Warning systems and Driver Monitoring Systems using computer vision and deep learning.

Previously, I served as a Robotics Researcher at the Center of Advanced Systems & Technologies (CAST) from 2017 to 2024, where I led the dynamics and control team for the Surena-V humanoid robot project. I hold BSc and MSc degrees in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Tehran, specializing in robotics and control.
