Stuart Ralston’s Summary
I'm a software guy at heart, but my work at Trimble now involves multi-site systems projects. I enjoy the challenge of mixed: people, cultures, technologies, values, approaches and bringing them together to deliver a total system solution that will make an impact in our existing and emerging markets.
I am passionate about user interface design and producing simple, elegent systems. This is reflected in my research into augmented reality and tangible interface design.
