Experience

Aircraft Multifunctional Display Software

I developed the software for the multifunctional displays of different types of aircraft and original equipment manufacturers (OEM). The software included front-end and back-end applications whose final purpose was to display flight-critical information to pilots.

Aircraft Heads-up Display Software

I developed the software for a heads-up aircraft display system that displays flight data to pilots, allowing them to reduce the workload while keeping their eyes on the flight's most critical phases.

Map Decluttering Algorithm

I developed the software that implemented the scientific papers’ algorithms that described different map decluttering strategies. This R&D project was part of an evaluation of the client of what was the best decluttering method of map points in a real-time digital map for an Avionic system.

The algorithms were implemented in C#, in a Windows host.
