Juan Francisco Martinez

With more than 15 years of experience in the electronics field and 100+ projects delivered at different levels combining academic research with industrial development and innovation at both, national and international levels.

With a full understanding of the hardware architecture and requirements definition all the way through the implementation and development process, Juan shows a well-defined work methodology in a combine research/industry environment. He is experienced in sensor and transducer design, conditioning, and processing, mainly focused on contactless sensing technologies.

As a researcher, he is especially interested in the development of novel sensing devices, transducers and smart materials within the growing ubiquitous computing environments and the Internet of Things ecosystem around it, including the IIoT and/or Industry 4.0.

As an Industry link, Juan provides with guidance and consultancy services to early stage technology start-ups and already stablished companies willing to explore new revenue streams by extending their product offering with novel technical solutions. With a very practical and user-centric approach, problems are tackled with simplicity and honesty, where there is no room for reinventing the wheel by providing over-engineered solutions.
