RFID Research Lab Employees

The 2011-2012 RFID Research Center Lab Employees

 

Aaron McKay

Aaron is a senior in Computer Science who will be graduating in May 2012.  He has been working at the University of Arkansas RFID Lab for about a year.  Some of the projects he is currently working on include the Arkansas Radio Compliance (ARC) project and the tool checkout system.  For ARC, he has been testing tags to make sure that they meet the specifications for several different products.  He is also working on creating new specifications in for other categories.  The tool checkout system is a new way of keeping inventory up to date and to automate checking items in and out.  Interests for a career include developing new systems related to RFID as well as trying to integrate RFID into already developed systems.  He is also interested in the process of how to expand RFID tags to new categories in retail stores.     

Dylan House
                           

Dylan is a Graduate Assistant of the Sam Walton College of Business who is pursuing a Master of Information Systems degree.  He is non-traditional student with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and provides over ten years of industry experience to the Center.  His background includes the implementation of a retail Fortune 500 company's supply chain RFID adoption, Information Security consulting, and software development.

Harry Scott

Harry Scott started research at the RFID Lab in February of 2011.  Since then, he has been researching computer vision Applications with RFID. His past project involves linking RFID Tags with Augmented Reality Markers which provides the ability to identify dead and problem tags while providing their location and item level data.  Currently he is researching on using 3D cameras to identify items without the need for markers. Outside the lab, Harry is currently pursuing research and development in the areas of natural user interfaces and the internet of things.


Justin Proctor

Justin attended college at the University of Tennessee and graduated in 2009 with a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration, emphasis in accounting.  He then went to Arkansas State University for a short time in pursuit of his Master of Accountancy degree.  Justin soon realized that he was no longer interested in accounting.  After much thought, Justin enrolled in the Master of Information Systems program here at the University of Arkansas. He will be graduating next year. Justin is a programmer at the RFID Research Lab.


Tanmaya Kumar


Tanmaya is a senior, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics. He is an international student at the University of Arkansas and has previously completed his pre-college education in India. He has a deep interest in Software Design and Development, with a focus on Architecture, RFID, Application Development and Databases. He has a diverse research background in AI, Virtual Worlds and RFID technology. He has also previously worked and interned at J B Hunt, RFID Research Lab (UARK), and FedEx Services.

Nathan is a recent Mechanical Engineering graduate from the University of Arkansas. He has been involved in several engineering projects through summer work and school. He worked as an assistant to the resident engineers at the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department in Wynne, AR. As a creative design project he was involved in the international collegiate solar boat competition entitled Solar Splash. He was a part of a 15 person hull team that was responsible for designing and implementing a new planning pad and steering system for a mono-hull boat. He is currently seeking an entry level Mechanical Engineering position to begin his career. Responsibilities at the Lab include maintaining contact with current project sponsors, installing/removing RFID technology in lab setting, and conducting controlled experiments implementing RFID technology.

 

Zack Duhamel

Zack Duhamel is a senior Biology major at the University of Arkansas, he will graduate in May.  Zack recently got married to Ashli Hart who he met at the University of Arkansas his freshman year.  When he graduates he plans on attending Physical Therapy school in Kansas City, MO.  Zack is a part of the Arc chamber test team at the RFID lab, where his primary responsibility is running radio identification tests on various tags, collecting the data and organizing it.  He has been a member of the RFID team since August 2011.


Zane Sturm

Zane Sturm is a sophomore mechanical engineer. He has been an employee of The RFID Research Lab since September 2010 to present. He is originally from Wynne AR. His future plans are to create renewable, efficient, and affordable energy solutions for the agriculture industry.
