Head Representative
Surrey Students’ Union- I work in the “Voice Zone” and am the Head Rep for the “Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences (FEPS)” at the University of Surrey.
Hi, I’m Seyed Mohammad Salehi.
I’m an electrical engineer and University of Surrey M.Sc. graduate in Computer Vision, Robotics, and Machine Learning. I build intelligent systems across AI, autonomous robotics, control, embedded software, and electronic hardware. My M.Sc. thesis focused on efficient human-motion prediction for safe autonomous navigation.
About
Based in: London, UK
I bridge hardware and software to turn research ideas into reliable working systems, from machine-learning models and control algorithms to embedded firmware and custom electronic circuits.
