EMPLOYMENT EXPERIENCE
Steuart Systems Jan 2015-Jul 2016
I developed on a Ubuntu Linux OS using C/C++ and OpenCL using an AMD GPU and NVIDIA Cuda
to do parallel processing for image processing to create a streoscopic 3D graphics system and a camera
scanner. The System using multiple cameras is able to create a 3D image of a room. The image processing
involved various unique smoothing algorithms, an unsharp mask and a de-mosaic algorithm. The camera
scanner was developed on a NVIDIA Jetson TK1 using a V4L2 interface to the camera.
Neustar Inc Nov 2011-Nov 2014
