JOSEPH N. ARMSTRONG

Electrical Engineer with a proven track record at Lockheed Martin in troubleshooting complex systems and optimizing production processes. Experience in Python, C/C++, and ROS, with a strong background in circuit schematics and lab equipment usage. Adept at leading teams and teaching, with a commitment to driving projects to successful completion. Holds a Master's in Electrical Engineering with a focus on Robotics, ready to contribute to innovative electrical engineering solutions.

• Insect Inspired Robot - Designed, 3D printed, and programmed a robot with 3 pairs of legs connected to each other with flexible tubing to allow the body to bend as it walked. Utilized an Arduino microcontroller and servo motors to create walking gaits.
• LabVIEW Checkers - Used LabVIEW to create a program that would allow a human user to play a game of checkers against a robotic arm. A camera positioned above the game board would read the movement that the player would make, and then control a robotic arm that would then move its own pieces in response.
• Baxter Chess - Utilized the Baxter industrial robot to play a game of chess against a human opponent. Using ROS and Python, Baxter would take an image of the board to read the movement that the player had made, and then use its hand to move a piece in response.
