Operational impact was to provide a 3-D electronically rotating sonar image deploying pulsed hifrequency tones for precise resolution while reducing the overall system foot print to two equipment racks. This technology was also deployed for base protection solutions as underwater detection systems.

Completed the VME Single Board Node Development Program consisting of 794 design/system requirements with 7 critical requirements and subsequent 3-year design warranty. - Team comprised of 18 cross-discipline members from manufacturing to accounting. - After the three-year design warranty period, only one update was required to add a new capability for system bus monitoring. - The product and related systems are still in service. Managed annual operating budget in excess of $2.5M and a cumulative revenue base in excess of $20M with a matrix design team comprising of 20-30 engineers of various disciplines and work locations.
