Martin Croome is an IC Software Manager with 13 years of experience blending product strategy, business development and hands-on software/architecture engineering. Currently at a fab-less semiconductor startup within the EssilorLuxottica group, he helps build ultra-low-power intelligent sensor solutions that fuse image, sound and motion to enable years-long battery operation and drastically lower installation costs. Martin brings embedded and IoT expertise—demonstrated by contributions to Repetier firmware for delta 3D printers—and backend systems experience from work on the luvi t project improving socket and HTTP server robustness. He excels at translating product requirements into efficient, power-optimized firmware and system architectures that scale from prototype to production. Based in the Greater Grenoble area, he pairs startup agility with cross-disciplinary leadership across hardware, firmware and product teams. A practical problem-solver, he often surfaces non-obvious trade-offs between energy budgets and sensor fusion accuracy to drive market-ready designs.

Contributions summary:Martin primarily contributed to the back-end logic of the `luvit` repository, focusing on socket and HTTP server implementations. Their work involved fixing bugs related to socket pausing, buffer clearing, and connection upgrades. They also implemented features like keeping HTTP connections alive and adding error handling to process management.
Contributions summary:Martin primarily contributed to adding and modifying features within the Repetier firmware, focusing on supporting a Rostock Delta 3D printer configuration. Their work involved modifying the core firmware code to incorporate delta printer-specific calculations, homing procedures, and movement logic. Key changes included adding G-code commands for delta printer calibration and measurement, along with adapting the code to handle a virtual axis, indicating a focus on optimizing the firmware for delta printer kinematics.
