Gedaliah Knizhnik
PhD, MEAM '22, Staff Robotic Software Engineer at RRAI
Gedaliah is a Staff Robotic Software Engineer at RRAI, where he works on manipulation in the context of autonomous trucking. As a Ph.D student in Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics at the University of Pennsylvania, he worked in the ModLab under Professor Mark Yim and researched modular swimming robots, reconfiguration, and energy-efficient swimming in information limited contexts. Gedaliah graduated with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering in 2017 from the University of Maryland, College Park where he did undergraduate research on underactuated robotic climbing for bridge inspection.
