Top SchoolSwaleh Owais is a Senior Robotics Research Scientist with a decade of hands-on experience designing and building robots across domains—from swarm robotics and UAVs to AMRs, subsea components, and 3D printers. Currently researching swarm solutions for manufacturing at the University of Arkansas, he blends academic rigor with product-focused prototyping learned at places like Formlabs and Autodesk. He has led end-to-end projects that moved from CAD and custom SLA/SLS parts to mass production runs and novel print-in-place soft actuators. Past work includes deploying robotics tooling and automation in industry settings, developing widely used educational software (CADGrader), and teaching CAD and Python to large cohorts. Known for bridging research and applied engineering, he also brings an unusually broad toolkit that spans controls, embedded software, mechanical design, and sustainable 3D printing processes.
