Samir El Jalkh
Inventor
Engineer and inventor, his work spans electronic, mechanical, and computer engineering. His latest discovery and patent resulted from a need for rotating, anti-tilting, pivotable sliding glass panels.
His breakthrough in LED lights took him to America with a completed working product to patent, which would later be known as the flat big screen. A registered idea by a giant in the industry saw the impossibility of moving forward with it; however, he ended up selling the invention as parts and returned to Lebanon with an Honorary Doctorate as a minor reward.
His work ranges from broadcasting television, industrial machinery, and digital robotics to his most recent project: an anti-tilting, pivotable sliding panel designed and built for a massive glass wall, which earned him his first patent, #7484331.
His current work is a first-of-its-kind robotic cutting and flanging machine, representing the next generation for industrial cutting and flanging of heavy steel and aluminum plates.
