I'm a systems engineer. I design/build hardware/firmware/software for all sorts of stuff. I've worked closely with image processing, robotics, low power surveillance, high-performance simulations, bio-inspired systems, 3D visualisation, real-time audio processing, computer games, databases, cluster computing and HCI. I work with FPGAs, DSPs, ICs, CPUs, PCBs - if it's abbreviated, I've probably done it! I don't like web stuff much, seems wasteful of clock cycles :)Industrial:Mecanum Wheel based cavity inspection platform Motor controller/driver with integrated touch screenSingle-axis robot for weld inspectionHandheld Acoustic Pulse tool for tube inspectionGantry ScannersSmall-bore inspection robot (PIG)Couplant delivery and extraction systems for the nuclear industryOmni-directional position encoding R&DDistributed A/V systemsRail Axle Scanning SystemsAcademic: APRON - Development of an IDE to create and analyse array-based algorithmsDSTL - Development of ultra low-power high performance vision systems for MOD.REVERB - Development of acceleration technology for the simulation of large-scale biologically plausible networks.SCAMP - Development of soft and firmware for a novel type of analogue array based image processor.APRON - An IDE for the development, exploration and real-time simulation of array-based algorithms.3DCHIP - software and communications infrastructure for a fully digital custom stacked-die vision sensorNEURONLAYER - firmware and visualisation software for a biologically plausible multi-neuron arrayAdditional:Optimised Flood Filling algorithmsSingle Clock Cycle Instruction 16-bit 100MIP soft coreOptimised non-grid path finding algorithmsInter-process transaction architecturesFluid low and high-level C/C++ programmer on x86 and ARM architectures.
