I am Mohamed Abdellatif, a Computer Vision Scientist/Engineer with a Ph.D. in intelligence technology. I have a strong background in algorithm and system development, with hands-on experience in Python and C++, AI model architecture development, and performance optimization. I am proficient in TensorFlow and PyTorch, and I have worked on SLAM, colour vision, illumination-invariant color recognition, Visual SLAM, and Lidar-based mapping and localisation. I am comfortable with ROS2 using OpenCV and established ML libraries, and I version-control code with GitHub, contributing across the full software development lifecycle from conception to deployment. Currently I am a Research and Development Engineer at Foodmate UK (Huddersfield) since 2023, where I built computer vision inspection systems for X-ray poultry images and hyperspectral yield measurement. My previous roles include leading localization and HD mapping work at Opteran Technologies and AIDrivers, developing synthetic test packages for evaluation, and building HD maps and pipelines for large outdoor areas. I have also conducted research and teaching at University of Leeds and Future University in Cairo, focusing on crack detection, visual SLAM, and autonomous robotics.
