In several small and midsize product development projects of clients I participated primarily in the system architect role. These project activities were performed either in-house or on-site.Activities:Requirements definition and high-level design of a coffee vending machine platform for ETNA-CT. Design included a RFID based subsystem to identify original ingredient cartridges, prevent unwanted refilling, and check expiration.System requirements definition and system design… Show more In several small and midsize product development projects of clients I participated primarily in the system architect role. These project activities were performed either in-house or on-site.Activities:Requirements definition and high-level design of a coffee vending machine platform for ETNA-CT. Design included a RFID based subsystem to identify original ingredient cartridges, prevent unwanted refilling, and check expiration.System requirements definition and system design of the complete electronic system of an infant incubator for the startup company BabyBloom Healthcare. The system was decomposed in a number of HW/SW subsystems taking safety requirements into account. The subsystems communicate via a CAN bus interface. Development of the .NET Compact Framework user interface application running on Windows CE. Porting of an IEC61131-3 soft-PLC software component to Linux running on dedicated hardware developed for a Remote Telemetry Unit for EATON.System design, website development and embedded software development for a proof of concept of a RFID based real-time medication monitoring system for Evalan. Wrote the project proposal to receive a grant from Syntens.Writing project proposals and performing feasibility studies during the acquisition phase of several projects. Show less
