EMERY L. MOORE, Ph.D.

Emery is a highly experienced and successful physicist and engineer. He has over 30 years of experience in systems engineering, test engineering, R&D management, aerospace business development and field office management for large corporations. He began his career as a systems engineer at Autonetics Division of North American Aviation on both the Minuteman and Polaris/Poseidon ballistic missile programs. Throughout the later half of the 1970's he managed the Washington Engineering Operations for Autonetics Marine Systems Division.

After being recruited by Litton Guidance & Control Systems Division, he was largely responsible for their successful entry into the Navy's shipboard inertial navigation business in the early 1970's, a business which has been sole source to Litton for many years and which led to the purchase of Sperry Marine Systems by Litton in the mid-1990's.

In the early 1980's, Emery spearheaded Litton's business development activities leading to Litton's entry into the underwater fiber optic acoustic sensor business, a business for which Litton (now Northrop Grumman) is today, far and away, the preponderant player. He personally developed Litton's fiber optic planar acoustic sensor concept, and is a co-inventor on the associated patent, for the fiber optic acoustic sensor arrays which have been incorporated into the U.S. Navy's Light Weight Wide Aperture Array (LWWAA) for its latest Virginia class attack submarines.

Emery pursued and won all of the initial R&D contracts for the development of Litton's fiber optic gyros and fiber optic inertial guidance systems. He managed Litton's internal R&D laboratory while working on advanced inertial and peripheral instruments including an atomic clock. He has a better than 90% success record in winning proposals under his management and direction.

More recently, Emery has had business development experience in military fiber optic communications, fiber optic switches, ATM multiplexers, and MPEG video CODEC's. He successfully developed several U.S. Army communications business activities for Litton giving Litton its first access in these markets.

Emery has been an officer and President of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering. He personally spearheaded, developed and established Societal relations in Poland, the USSR and the PRC. He is listed in Who's Who in Science and Engineering, Millenium Edition, and maintains membership in several professional organizations.

Emery has a Ph.D. and B.S.E.E. from the Pennsylvania State University and an M.S.E.E. from the University of Southern California. He is a co-inventor on two U.S. and one Canadian patent.
