Victor Wheeler is an embedded software engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience building high-reliability GPS and automotive firmware, plus eight years of recent professional experience delivering multi-threaded, real-time systems. He combines deep low-level expertise (PIC32/PIC24/dsPIC, MIPS32 and some Arm Cortex-A8 assembly) with strong algorithm skills in spatial math, Kalman filtering, PID control and lap-time prediction using GPS/IMU data. Victor’s work spans firmware, device drivers, and Windows desktop utilities for configuration and data analysis, and he applies object-oriented, Design-by-Contract approaches to produce maintainable, dependable code. An active contributor to the LVGL project documentation, he also brings broad scripting, database and front-end experience that helps bridge embedded systems to user-facing tools. Based in Denver, he’s particularly interested in applying his GPS, mapping and optimization expertise to alternative energy, environmental and GIS efforts, and unwinds by motorcycling in the mountains.
