2. I Curriculum Vitae - Pooya Heiraty
Short Biography
To start, it is worth mentioning that I hold the experience of working in the field of “machinery designing” for
somewhere in the region of 12 years, including 8 years of performing professional projects at medical, machinery
and robotic companies. Needless to say, this provided me with a unique practical experience in this field. Making
tens of high component and complex mobile robots, making laparoscopic and orthopedic instruments, surgery
tables, bionic limbs, writing some practical books in relevant areas, developing international robotic training
principles, and registering several patents, to name but a few, are among those the most majors activities done by
me in the recent years. High level of innovation and creation in conjunction with my ability to manage the R&D
projects are counted as my significant features. Last but not least, regarding my long experience in CAD modeling
it could be accomplished by me in the soonest possibility.
Most importantly, the robotic projects, done by me, could be performed with highest effectiveness which means,
fewest required parts, cost effective, highest reliability and performance.
