Meet the Team

Hamid is an award-winning design engineer, inventor and technology executive who holds more than 20 U.S. and international patents for his innovative work. His fields of expertise include computer science, electrical engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence with direct experience in neural networks, genetics algorithms, fuzzy logic, and soft computing. Hamid is familiar with more than 20 high-level and low-level programming languages and has written millions of lines of code in his 35 years of experience as a design engineer. From 1993 to 2000, he worked at Taco Inc., where he designed a genetic algorithm system to automate the design of split capacitor motors. This effort led to the creation of Taco 0013; the most efficient circulator ever designed. In 1997, Hamid won first prize in Microchip Corp international mechatronics competition. In 2006, Hamid invented a 3D camera system that uses genetically optimized neural transformation matrices instead of laser- scanning. His patent for this invention has been referenced by many Fortune 100 Companies. From 2010 to 2019, Hamid served as the Chief Technology Officer of MHT Lighting in New York, during which he earned several patents in the field of high-energy power switching and energy reduction systems. He has been the president of General Sensors, Inc. since 2008 and the Chief Technology Officer of Growgenics since 2019. Hamid is a graduate of the University of Rhode Island, where he received a Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering. He lives in Warwick, Rhode Island.
