Cary grew up in the Portland area and attended University of the Pacific in California, where he earned a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering. After graduation he moved back to Oregon and landed his first job in Corvallis at Intelledex, designing automation systems based on machine vision and and robotics technology. After that he spent two years designing and installing various control systems for Lucidyne Technologies where he met and worked with Lucidyne co-founder Joseph LaChapelle. In 1991, Joe and Cary left Lucidyne to start Techné Systems in Albany where they designed and built various machine vision systems for industrial inspection applications. In 1997 they sold Techné to Electroglas, Inc., of Santa Clara, California, renamed the company Electroglas Inspection Products, and relocated to a larger facili! ty in Corvallis. Cary remained on at Electroglas Inspection Products as VP of Engineering until June, 2003 when a difficult business climate prompted Electroglas to abandon the Corvallis facility and sell its assets. After spending the summer on his mountain bike, Cary returned to work in November, 2003 for ATS Systems Oregon, holding various positions including Engineering Manager, Operations Manager, and Applications Engineering Manager. Cary left ATS in January 2006 to join Deep Photonics where he continues to work presently. / *SAO CORVALLIS:* Tech Brew Pubs are a monthly event organized by the Software Association of Oregon, Corvallis Chapter (www.sao.corvallis.or.us <http://www.sao.corvallis.or.us>).
