πŸ‘‹ Hi, I’m Cheick Ismael MAIGA, P.Eng

πŸš€ Research Engineer & Lead at Cambrian R&D – Centre for Smart Mining
πŸ’‘ Passionate about Robotics, SLAM, Embedded Systems, and AI in Harsh Environments
🌍 Building solutions for autonomous mining, industrial IoT, and smart robotics


πŸ”­ What I’m Working On

  • MiningLIO β†’ Robust SLAM for underground mines (FAST-LIO2 adaptation)
  • MineFleetSim β†’ ROS 2 + Gazebo simulation for underground vehicle coordination
  • Security & Teleoperation Rovers β†’ AI + LiDAR-based perimeter surveillance and teleop
  • IoT & Embedded Systems β†’ ESP32, STM32, Jetson Orin projects for industrial monitoring

πŸ› οΈ Tech Stack

Robotics & SLAM

  • ROS 2, FAST-LIO2, Livox & Ouster LiDAR, Intel RealSense, VTK/Open3D

Embedded Systems

  • STM32, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, Jetson Orin, CAN bus, LoRa, LTE GNSS

AI & Vision

  • PyTorch, YOLOv5/8, TensorRT, CUDA, OpenCV

Software Engineering

  • C++17, Python, Qt, Docker, GitHub Actions

πŸ“ˆ Highlight

Recently deployed FAST-LIO2 in a live mining drift (Sudbury, ON) β€” overcoming IMU drift, vibration noise, dust interference, and magnetic anomalies to achieve stable 3D mapping underground.


🌱 What I’m Learning

  • Advanced deep learning & CUDA optimization
  • Building scalable AI/robotics consulting practices
  • Technical leadership for multi-disciplinary R&D teams

🀝 Let’s Collaborate

  • Autonomous mining & robotics projects
  • Robust SLAM for harsh environments
  • AI for safety, perception, and industrial automation

πŸ“« Connect


⭐️ Always open to collaborations, new ideas, and pushing the boundaries of robotics in tough environments.
