Sami Haddadin Explained

Sami Haddadin (born 26 June 1980)[1] is a German electrical engineer, computer scientist, and university professor specializing in robotics and artificial intelligence.[2] Since April 2018, he has served as the executive director of the Munich Institute of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MIRMI) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), where he also holds the Chair of Robotics and Systems Intelligence.[3]

Early life and education

Haddadin was born in Neustadt am Rübenberge, Germany, to a Jordanian doctor and a Finnish nurse. He is the eldest of three children.[4] He completed his Abitur in 1999 in Stolzenau[5] and pursued studies in electrical engineering and informatics at several institutions, including the Leibniz University Hannover, the University of Hagen,[6] the University of Oulu in Finland, and Munich. Haddadin holds degrees in electrical engineering, computer science, and technology management from the Technical University of Munich and the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM), a joint institute of TUM and the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.[7]

Career

Haddadin received his doctorate summa cum laude from RWTH Aachen University in 2011.[8] He subsequently worked as a research assistant at the German Aerospace Center (DLR).[9] From April 2014 to April 2018, he held the Chair of Automatic Control at the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz University Hannover.[10] In 2018, he joined TUM as a professor and director of MIRMI. Haddadin has published over 200 scientific articles and is recognized for his contributions to robotics and AI.[11]

Haddadin is a co-founder of the German robotics company Franka Emika GmbH.[12] His invention, the Panda Robotic Arm, was included in Time magazine's "50 Best Inventions of 2018"[13] [14] and featured in National Geographic in September 2020.[15] His patent for the "Tactile Robot" is part of the "Milestone made in Germany" collection by the German Patent and Trade Mark Office (DPMA).[16]

Haddadin and his team curated the exhibition "KI.ROBOTIK.DESIGN," which explores the development and future of robotics and AI. The exhibition was presented at the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich.[17]

Haddadin has been involved in various initiatives and commissions, such as the "Robot Factory" training program in Hanover[18] and the Study Commission on Artificial Intelligence in the German Parliament.[19] He has served on the EU High-Level Industrial Roundtable "Industry 2030"[20] and the EU High-Level Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence.[21] In 2020, he was appointed Chairman of the Bavarian AI Council.[22]

Awards and honors

Haddadin has received several prestigious awards, including the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize in 2019[23] and the Alfried Krupp Sponsorship Award for Young University Teachers in 2015. In 2017, he and his colleagues Simon Haddadin and Sven Parusel were awarded the German Future Prize for their work on affordable, flexible, and user-friendly robots.[24] In 2021, Haddadin was elected a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.[25]
