Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMadeline Gannon is a designer-technologist and founder with 11 years of experience inventing new ways for people to communicate with industrial machines and robots. As Founder & Principal Researcher of ATONATON and a former Robotics & AI Research Engineer at NVIDIA, she blends academic rigor from a PhD in Computational Design with hands-on research and production work. Her career spans industry residencies and research roles at Autodesk and CMU, where she translated architecture and fabrication expertise into embodied human-machine interaction. Madeline is known for "taming" robots—making them more expressive and collaborative rather than purely industrial—and for approaching robotics through design-led experiments that surface unexpected behaviors. Based in Miami, she combines studio practice with applied AI research to prototype tools that reshape how machines make things.
