OUR PEOPLE

Lachie Campbell
Founder
Lachie Campbell is a leader in mining technology research and development, and the commercialisation of innovations. He has more than two decades experience in product development, with a strong focus on radar, lidar, computer vision and software for the mining industry. Prior to founding Geobotica, he was Vice President Technology at GroundProbe and a member of the Orica group. During his 11 years with GroundProbe he invented and co-invented 10 of the company’s 14 patent families.

Dr Reza Ahmadi
Senior Machine Learning Engineer
Ahmadreza Ahmadi is a leading researcher in Machine Learning. His main role in Geobotica is to develop and employ machine learning algorithms for various industrial applications. Before joining Geobotica, Reza was a Post-Doctoral Fellow at CSIRO where he researched AI and Machine Learning, advancing both our understanding of complex deep learning models and their implementation in robotics. He has a PhD from KAIST – the prestigious Korean University, in deep learning and robotics and also worked as a Post-Doc in Japan for Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), where he developed novel machine learning models applied for time-series data.

Dr Yanyang Gu
Senior Software Engineer
Yanyang Gu completed her PhD at Griffith University where she researched and developed novel AI methods for skin-cancer imaging and detection using both cameras and hyper-spectral imaging. She progressed to a Post-Doctoral Fellowship at University of Queensland, further continuing skin-cancer imaging research and developing AI for drone-based scanning of agricultural crops. With a Masters in Virtual Reality and Bachelors in Automation, Yanyang brings a wealth of experience to her work at Geobotica.

Dr Xiaofei Wang
Robotics Engineer
Xiaofei Wang earned his PhD at University of Technology Sydney (UTS) by researching human-robot interaction based on Brain-Computer Interface (BCI). While his research covered robotics control systems and navigation, his novel research was designing and implementing new methods to control a robot directly by human thought via non-invasive BCI. At Geobotica, he brings his robotic navigation experience to engineer our next generation of innovative robotic technology.
