Background
Kyle co-founded VastVision Technologies to close the distance between what national laboratories discover and what gets built and deployed. Under his leadership, VastVision runs its own microfabrication, materials characterization, and coatings capabilities in Albuquerque, so a material can go from first deposition to a fielded part with one team.
Before founding VastVision, Kyle worked at Sandia National Laboratories, where he built a foundation in advanced sensing and hardware engineering. He was named a Los Alamos National Laboratory LEEP Fellow, recognizing entrepreneurs advancing lab-born technology into real-world commercial impact.
Focus
Kyle works at the intersection of materials science, hardware, and software: magnetostrictive thin films and MEMS sensing, batteryless communication through conductive shielding, and the RFID, UWB, and LoRaWAN systems that put new sensors into the field.
Magnetostrictive Thin Films
Aqueous electrodeposition of high-strain magnetostrictive films, a process previously thought to require molten salt.
