This Expert Witness received his Ph.D. in 2012 from the Biomedical Engineering department at USC for his work on fluid—based tactile vibration sensing and the development of Bayesian exploration.  He is also a co-founder of a company that manufactures biomimetic tactile sensors and has been the lead systems engineer on the development of this technology since the company's founding in ‘08.  As Director of Research, his interests are in developing applications of tactile sensing in robotics, tele robotics and prosthetics. His areas of interest include thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, PDEs, machining, FEA, electronics, and PIDs.  This Expert Witness has superb research capabilities and can help prepare arguments on prior art that either support or invalidate IP in question.
