The Centrifuge at Goddard Space Flight Center.  In this picture, a Hubble instrument is about to
be tested (on tilt table to the left of the picture).  This massive facility can be spun at up to 20 rpm, leading
to a speed of about 100 mph at the ends.  The hardware then experiences 15 G's of acceleration.  For scale, note
the test technician standing on the movable platform.

In 2002, I was on the development team for the RF-250 wireless
keyboard from Wireless Computing.

I wrote the software for the microprocessor in both the keyboard and the USB receiver,
and did the overall design on the electrical circuit of both devices.  Since this product,
my code has been used on the RF-015, RF-019, RF-100, RF-170, RF-222, RF-240, and the RF-600 (info from Martin Philips, CEO).

Starting in 2009, in association with XPin (formerly PinScore), we have
been producing these boards to replace the display board
on Williams WPC pinball machines.
