Everything from systems/EE design and architecture work to boards to firmware to bottle washing. (It's a startup.)

Led system architecture and system design, networking, edge compute, road side sensing hardware and firmware.

Led hardware and software on multiple undisclosed hardware projects.

Led hardware and software and developer relations for Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2. Went from project kickoff with JDM to salable (PVT) units in 10 months with brand new internals (SoC, camera, touch pad, display, radio, thermal architecture).

Advanced R&D for Virtual Reality from cameras to headsets to controllers.Much can't be discussed, but my team did develop factory stereo calibration for several binocular camera products.

Tech Lead / Manager of Virtual Reality Camera Systems (Jump and Lightfield camera arrays).

(retroactively edited) I was the hardware/software lead on Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2. This product went from a hardware concept at the start of 2018 to a PVT/MP (revenue-able) product in Q4 2018 with GA sales in 2019.

I led and managed a cross-disciplinary team responsible for a number of camera systems for Google Geo, including Street View, aerial, and Art Project by Google (http://www.googleartproject.com/). I was also responsible for other cool stuff that I can't talk about.

Our group works on three things: *- how to measure/compare sustainability, *- how to improve the sustainability of Information Technology (IT) -- 2% of the world's carbon footprint, and *- how to apply IT to improve the other 98%.I am the systems architect and technical transfer lead for our group. I work with other electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, control theory experts, computer scientists (esp. machine learning experts), and an economist.The bulk of our work on improving IT sustainability is focused on data centers. The work aims to provide IT services at a defined quality (SLA) with the least energy, least materials and least cost possible.For our data center work, I have developed a sophistiated data model of the data center facilities, IT, and services; and a high-performance messaging architecture that allow us to bring in sensor data from a variety of these systems. The data is related in real-time to the model.Most of our work is built upon this architecture. We leverage the model and the model-referenced data to do active control of cooling, IT and services. The architecture also supports rich user interfaces for historical reporting and live dash boarding.I manage several large-scale demonstrators of our work in production data centers.In addition to the above, I am a member of team standing up a new worldwide business for energy and sustainability for HP.

I was a member of the Storage Systems Department within HP Laboratories.I worked on the long-term preservation of digital assets.I wrote a book on storage systems (available at http://www.amazon.com/Storage-data-information-systems-Wilkes/dp/1424317312).I implemented a large-scale, collaborative caching scheme that created a low latency, geographically-dispersed storage network for our customers. This work was done in close cooperation with the awesome folks at Dreamworks Animation.

Senior research working on novel computing and communication devices for consumer applications from the living room in the first world to villages in the third world.Investigated and developed datacasting solutions for analog and digital video.Worked for several years with Berkeley WIreless Research Center (BWRC). Provided system perspective for novel physical layer radio architectures that could be both reactive and low power. Looked at MAC layers that were energy efficient.Experienced with embedded Linux, especially on ARM, including hardware bring-up via JTAG. Contributed code to kernel for the ARM tree and for various device drivers. Wrote the the initial set of patches that eventually became CONFIG_EMBEDDED to pare down the kernel for embedded devices. Contributed to one of the first ARM boot loaders, blob, including board ports, a new NOR flash programming layer and XMODEM downloads.

HP acquired OneSpot to integrate our team with the Internet Computing and Platform Technologies Center within HP Labs.

Co-founder and CTO.

Was chief architect for the Virtual Component Co-Design (VCC) aka Felix program within the Alta Group of Cadence Design Systems.Previously an architect for BONeS (Block Oriented Network Simulator), a predcessor to VCC, and a successful network design and planning software package.This work began with Comdisco Systems, a subsidiary of Comdisco, Inc. Comdisco Systems was acquired by Cadence Design Systems.
