Summary
Robert Huston is a seasoned embedded systems and avionics engineer with over three decades of experience designing real-time safety-critical systems, from aircraft collision warning and radar to GPS/WAAS navigation and switched-mode power supplies. As co-owner and managing member of Pinpoint Dynamics since 2005, he blends hands-on bare-metal development and systems engineering with formal DO-178/DO-254 and IEC 61508 processes to deliver robust, certifiable solutions. He’s also a long-time Apple platform developer (Mac since 1984, iOS since 2008), able to move between mobile apps and low-level hardware/software design with equal fluency. Known for strengths in signal processing, Kalman filtering, multi-sensor tracking and power-line communications, he frequently consults for major aerospace and defense firms. Based in Columbus, Ohio, he pairs lean and test-driven practices with deep domain expertise to simplify complex, mission-critical problems.
