Meeting with Denis Coat, CSO of EmTroniX
EmTroniX is an SME and a key player in the space sector in Luxembourg and at European level. The company designs and produces, on its premises, various systems for the space industry.
With its seven areas of expertise – Electronics, FPGA, Software, Signal Processing, Radio Frequency, Mechanics and Production – EmTroniX is capable of producing a complete system that will serve either to fulfill the satellite’s mission or to ensure its survival and operation.
Denis Coat, who had already spoken to students in our Embedded Systems and Software in-depth course during the blocked week from November 20 to 24, 2023, will be at TELECOM Nancy on January 24, 2025 to present the specific issues of today’s space sector, as well as the challenges that a future engineer could face.
Indeed, the space domain has characteristics that make it unique:
- The difficulty of accessing a satellite once launched
- The particularly harsh environment to which a satellite is subjected
- The rigor of development and documentation during projects
Denis Coat, after 20 years of experience in the automotive industry at Renault, decided to join EmTroniX more than 2 years ago. A central element within the company, his global view and system approach allow him to lead and federate the company’s different expertise within the different projects.
The goal? To develop reliable, efficient and, above all, sustainable systems together.
He will be delighted to be able to share his experience, his discovery of the space world and give some useful perspectives to future engineers.
