Our Story

Hi, it's Hamza, Anas and Hassan, the expert roboticist siblings of the future. Our journey starts in Syria. We first attained experience in the field, when a robotics engineering student began to educate the youth of the local mosque. We additionally gained exposure from our mother who taught electronics engineering at the University of Damascus.

When we first arrived in Canada shortly after the war, all three of us still had a lot to learn and followed our passion in robotics. Within months of attending high school in Canada, we established a team of roboticists who were interested in the specialized profession. Our journey continued on to university where the stars began to align.

During our studies in university, we participated in the Mars Rover Competition, where we led our team to achieve 2nd place internationally (1st place in North America).

Meanwhile the three of us worked as teachers in robotics and taught elementary, middle and high school students. Our students developed various skills and began to exhibit teamwork, creativity, and problem solving capabilities, among many others. They went on to even achieve numerous podium positions on an international, and national level, even throughout the pandemic.

As of our current situation, Anas is starting his PhD in robotics, after spending a significant amount of time teaching robotics to youth. Hassan is finishing his degree in computer engineering, while working a robotics engineer at the Canadian Space Agency. Hamza is attending med school in Windsor with the objective pursuing innovation in medicine.

We all believe in a world where humans can connect with robots and work together for the sake of making the world a better place for mankind. The three of us have spent many years studying to become expert roboticists and want to educate the next generation in hopes of making our vision a reality.
