LEDs Magazine 40 Under 40 Profile: Trevor Vogt (UPDATED)
The test and measurement (T&M) function is often forgotten across the technology sector, yet neither product development nor production could happen without the support of test engineers and the specialized equipment developed for specific applications.
Trevor Vogt leads the development of such equipment at Gamma Scientific. He was also the lead engineer on the RS-7 Series of tunable light sources that later won an LEDs Magazine Sapphire Award back in 2018. Those products have found applications beyond LED lighting and horticultural markets into augmented and virtual reality and other consumer electronics, mobile and desktop display characterization and calibration applications, as well as airborne and space-based sensors.
Vogt earned an engineering degree at the University of California at Santa Cruz and participated in the Jack Baskin School of Engineering and conducted research in the Applied Optics Group. He holds a certification as a Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt.
