About Me
Hello! My name is Robert Heaton and I am
- a Mechatronics Engineer from Lancashire currently working for BAE Digital Intelligence.
- This website is a platform to share my work and personal projects, as well as ramble to the
- void that is the internet.
+ a Mechatronics Engineer from Lancashire currently working in the defense and space sector.
+ This website is a platform to share some of my work and personal projects.
I have always enjoyed electronics and embedded systems,
- developing a liking for robotics and autonomous systems in my first
- year of study, and developing the chronic condition Startusnevercompletus.
+ and love tinkering away at both hardware and software/simulation. This does mean I
+ suffer the same condition that affects many an engineer: Startusnevercompletus.
+ Currently my work involves writing VHDL as a firmware engineer for SDR modems, scripting
+ automatic testbenches and test-vector generation, C and Java programming to support modem operation
+ and the ground station user-interface, system technician for supporting modem-connected computer, and
+ front-line tech support for customers.
