Scout Design Team

Meet the members of the Scout design team.

Dan

Dan, Project Manager, Colony Scout

Project Manager

Howdy! I'm a mechanical engineering student by day, and a roboticist by night. I make sure things are pixel perfect from our websites to SolidWorks CAD models. As manager of the Scout team, I oversee a talented group of engineers who make every design decision worthwhile.

Kevin

Kevin, Lead Electrical Engineer, Colony Scout

Lead Electrical Engineer

I am an electrical and computer engineering student specializing in computer hardware and firmware. My passion? Designing awesome embedded systems that you use everyday. I also enjoy naming boards after types of flies. I designed the Scoutfly board as well as work with the Mechanical and OS team to provide the hardware needed for the robot.

Brad

Brad, OS, Colony Scout

Operating System Master

Hi, I am a computer science student who loves robots! I lead the OS team and I'm also designing Scout's software architecture. I'm hoping to spread my love of robots by creating a system that is reliable and easy to program and understand.

James

James, Colony Scout Tech Consultant

I consult on design issues, researched potential operating systems and localization module designs, and provided initial encouragement for the Colony Scout project.

Chris

Chris, BOM, Colony Scout BOM/Wireless

I'm an electrical and computer engineering major designing some of the additional hardware for the Scout, including the BOM daughter board. I am also interested in software engineering on embedded systems, and I look forward to building and using this new platform.

Rich

Rich, OS, Colony Scout Operating System

I am the 1337 h4x0r who helps on the Scout's OS. In my spare time I enjoy keeping servers from exploding and bringing organizations into the social networking scene. Oh, also I am really a monkey.

David

David, Wireless Systems, Colony Scout Wireless Systems

I'm a physics and computer science student, and dabble in robotics in my free time. I manage the wireless communication subsystem both on the main board and as a bridge between the robots and the internet.
