Andreas Apitz

R&D Hardware Engineer @ Keysight Technologies

About

I'm an analytical, multi-disciplined, adaptable engineer and recent grad from Cal Poly SLO, where I got my Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering. In summer 2016, I interned at VIZIO, Inc., where I created an automated picture quality test system using a Raspberry Pi and scripts written in C and Python. Last summer, I interned at Renovo Motors, where I assembled a wireless stereo camera system for use in remotely controlled driving. This involved reverse engineering the CAN bus connection in a commercial drone system to convert telemetry information into an on-screen display.

Irvine, CA

Worked as an engineering intern at VIZIO, Inc. in Irvine, CA from June-Sept 2016. Primarily focused on developing software & hardware to run tests automatically and reliably. Used software written in Python and C, a Raspberry Pi microcontroller, and external hardware (light sensor + signal processing) to produce an objective, automated, and easy to operate test fixture that drastically reduced the time and resources required to test TV picture quality, replacing subjective and undetailed oscilloscope measurements.
