Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Entinger is a Senior Robotics Engineer with 13 years of experience designing and shipping embedded firmware for mobile robotics, currently leading robotics engineering at LXRobotics from Upper Austria. He combines deep low-level expertise—demonstrated by contributions to Arduino cores for mbed and SAMD21 and porting complex I2C/HTTP drivers—with practical team leadership from roles at Ds Automotion and LCM. His work blends rigorous embedded systems design (MSc) with hands-on IoT development, optimizing USB, ADC, and power-constrained firmware for real products. Known for making platform integrations reliable and maintainable, he often translates research-grade code into Arduino-friendly libraries and examples that broaden hardware accessibility.

Role in this project:Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:9 reviews, 31 commits, 18 PRs in 2 years 6 months
Contributions summary:Alexander primarily contributed to integrating and adapting the ENVIE_Video_Firefly library within the Arduino environment. Their work included porting I2C communication to the Arduino style using the Wire library, implementing the core functionality by extracting the main loop to fit the Arduino setup/loop concept. They also addressed include paths and fixed missing headers while also updating code to use standard C types and supporting both HTTP and HTTPS GET requests.
