Seascape is partnering with Barnstorm Agtech, licensing Barnstorm's Open Telemetry System and applying it to fleets of autonomous robotic boats that are to be used in marine aquaculture operations. This is just one part of a comprehensive plan to automate nearly all labor-intensive aspects of premium shellfish mariculture. I am a co-founder, working together with the owner of the East Hampton Oyster Company as we build this exciting and environmentally conscientious "blue economy" venture.

Chief Technology Officer
2020
I am a partner/co-founder of a transformative robotics venture that is on course to shape the future of agriculture. Watch for Barnstorm's open platform for "swarm farming". Barnstormers™ are heavily powered as well as precision deployable. Our initial focus is on automated spraying, but the system is extensible, designed to be applicable to many other agricultural uses as well as other tractors, vehicles, and robots.

Optimal Actuation ("OA") is capitalized with several million dollars from a Beijing-based multi-billion dollar sovereign wealth fund. I negotiated the financing transaction and I established the initial budgets and business strategy. OA was formed in order to capture market share outside of China in the rapidly expanding robotics and high precision industrial automation markets.

We produced a comprehensive SAT-PSAT-ACT training software product, available through all major retailers in N. America and via download. Headroom's "College Success" presented 17 full-length simulated SAT, ACT, and PSAT exams as well as hundreds of flashcards and many tutorials offering proven advice for score improvement. In 2010 our product displaced Kaplan as the global market leader in this competitive software category. From that time forward Headroom has been #1 ranked. Older product titles from Headroom Learning include: "Math Success Deluxe", "High School Success", "Middle School Success", and "Elementary School Success". Math Success was the leading math education software title sold in North America (2007-2009). It pioneered a new approach to e-learning, based on "peer tutoring" via life-like avatars. Headroom is expanding exam prep scope to include major tests of English as a foreign language; e.g. TOEIC, TEPS, IELTS, TOEFL and major portions of China's Gaokao.
