Dr. Siddharth Mayya

Co-founder & Full-stack Roboticist

Siddharth is a robotics researcher and systems builder with more than a decade of experience across multi-robot coordination, motion planning, embedded sensing, machine learning and cloud-connected systems. He earned his PhD at Georgia Tech and completed postdoctoral research in the GRASP Lab at the University of Pennsylvania. He helped build the Robotarium, a remotely accessible swarm-robotics platform used by more than 10,000 users across six continents; deployed planning and learning systems at Amazon Robotics; and led end-to-end sensing, analytics and IoT development at Aquatic Labs. He now leads multi-robot coordination research for physical AI systems at Chewy Robotics.

Dr. Gennaro Notomista

Research Partner, University of Waterloo

Gennaro leads the Ecological and Resilient Autonomous roBots Lab (ERABLab) at the University of Waterloo. His research spans robot design and control for long-duration autonomy, resilient multi-robot systems and sustainable environmental monitoring. He develops eco-compatible robots that can operate in uncertain environments for extended periods and adapt when conditions change. Gennaro and Siddharth have collaborated on energy-aware task allocation for heterogeneous robot teams and on brushbot platforms used for research and public education. As a research partner to Habitat Robotics, he contributes expertise in resilient autonomy & robotics architecture.
