A joint engineering relationship in designing systems for the HVAC, telecommunications and controls industries. We wrote SBIR's and proposals for new development work.

Designed a battle field training system for the M1A1 tank and other similar vehicles for shooting ballistics in actual field exercises. I designed the microprocessors, microcontroller, analog, digital and optical electronic circuitry. I reviewed the artwork for correctness and specified the layout of the high frequency circuit traces. I was a project engineer for the development of a video graphics card for a real time battle field training system. I kept metrics on the progress with our outside vendor and worked at his site. I was a test engineer for the F15 video graphics display and also troubleshot test stand hardware problems. I isolated two obsolete electronic components that stopped test stand production and came up with a workable solution.
