Welcome!

Hi, I’m Zahi Kakish, a Senior Researcher at Sandia National Laboratories (SNL). My interests include multi-robot systems, autonomous inspection in unconstrained and dynamic environments, and swarm robotics. I received my Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering from Arizona State Unviersity under Dr. Spring Berman.

I am also a co-founder of the robotics company Sol Robotics developing novel parallel actuated robots for large work environments.

Please reach out if you would like to collaborate or discuss robotics!
