HIGH PERFORMANCE OPEN HARDWARE FOR SCIENTIFIC APPLICATIONS

Elphel Inc. was founded in 2001 by Dr. Andrey Filippov with the idea of designing Open Hardware high performance cameras, using the principles found in Free and Open Source Software development and in scientific research. We would like to present our experience in doing business as an open hardware company, developing high performance products distributed under GNU/GPL and CERN OH licenses, which are open to modifications and valued by scientific community around the globe. Olga Filippova Olga Filippova is a vice-president of Elphel, business manager and project coordinator. She is also responsible for customer relations, sales and marketing. Olga holds a Master's Degree in Architecture, with professional experience in 3D modelling and project management, and has been with the company since it's start in 2001. Andrey N. Filippov Andrey N. Filippov has over 30 years of experience in the embedded systems design. Since graduation from the Moscow Institute for Physics and Technology in 1978 he worked for the General Physics Institute (Moscow, Russia) in the area of high-speed high-resolution, mixed signal design, application of PLDs and FPGAs, and microprocessor-based embedded system hardware and software design, with a special focus on image acquisition methods for laser physics studies and computer automation of scientific experiments. Andrey holds a PhD in Physics from the Moscow Institute for Physics and Technology. In 1995 Andrey moved to the United States and after working for Cordin Company (Salt Lake City, Utah) for 6 years in 2001 started Elphel, Inc. dedicated to doing business in emerging field of open systems based on free (GNU/GPL) software and open hardware. Oleg Dzhimiev Oleg Dzhimiev has been working at Elphel as an electronics engineer since 2009. Oleg holds a Master's Degree in Applied Mathematics and Physics from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Moscow Russia. His professional experience includes working with network digital cameras, creating firmware for Elphel network cameras and extension boards, using Verilog FPGA language, creating tests for network cameras, creating image-processing workflows and image processing tools related to camera calibration.
