Embedded Systems

Scott Rosenthal is one of the industry's foremost developer of products with embedded systems. He is directly responsible for the successful designs of over 100 products. The products cover the spectrum from instrumentation to measurement and control to industrial and commercial applications. Some examples of industries and the products that he's designed include water quality analyzers, medical monitoring systems, vending systems, grain product analyzers, smokestack "scrubber" systems, and communication system analyzers.

Scott's focus is on designing and building products—not on designing the best embedded system! What good's a fantastic embedded system if the product doesn't sell? Scott's designs are of high quality and they work(!) — they can be easily maintained, understood, and upgraded by others, they're cost-effective to produce, and are expandable for future requirements.

Unlike most embedded system folks, Scott's equally at home with embedded software and hardware. Additionally, he's also an expert at optoelectronic systems, specializing in low-level light measurement and LEDs as quantitative light sources.

Writing

For almost 10 years, Scott wrote a column on embedded design techniques for Personal Engineering & Instrumentation News.

Scott writes for, and is a contributing editor to, Practical Sailor magazine. Other articles of his have also appeared in Blue Water Sailing and Good Old Boat magazines. For more information about Scott's sailing, check out his sailboat web site at www.sltf.com/boat.
