About Me
Hello! My name is Robert Heaton and I am
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,
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.
