Interests:  Knowledge Networks, Catalyzing Innovation, Tech Entrepreneurship, Healthy and Sustainable Communities

Pioneer in identifying, developing, and applying new information and communication technologies:

• The first consumer applications of the microprocessor (4bit & LSIs) … for the toy and game industry and for education
• The first internet cafe with online news, games, and computer conferencing
• The first prototype smartphone working with the developers of the Amiga computer, the first graphical computer

My current focus is developing a network of onAir hubs based on a new knowledge sharing software platform with many unique features such as enabling authors to own and share their content across multiple public and custom Hubs.   Current hub that is being established to bring together people interested in implementing a People’s Internet is at people.onair.cc.

Todd Gillette is CTO for onAir Tech, a startup chartered in Virginia building an innovative knowledge sharing platform. Todd is also Chair of onAir Networks, the 501c3 nonprofit overseeing the implementation of the onAir platform for public online networks.

Todd currently serves as a Staff Software Engineer at Northrop Grumman Corporation’s Mission Systems. Todd earned his PhD in Neuroscience in 2015 from George Mason University, having researched informatics and data analytics methods applied to neuronal morphology and function. He holds a BS in Engineering and BA in Computer Science from Swarthmore College.

Along with his many years working with software, Todd’s experience includes mission engineering and systems engineering, determining and documenting the key problems to be solved, deriving requirements, architecting and evaluating candidate solutions, and verifying designs and implementations. He has worked with cyber systems and software engineers to address anti-tamper and unintended emissions concerns and to integrate defensive and offensive cyber capabilities.

Todd has also studied and applied artificial intelligence, including machine learning and logical ontology-based techniques. The intersections of AI and biological brains, and how to leverage them to enhance human capabilities in an ethical and human-centered manner, continue to be one of Todd’s primary interests.
