Don then worked in on industrial tomography. That is like the CAT scans they have in hospital, except it is for valves and pipes. He developed the computer programs to run it and analyze the results and sometimes helped the technicians assemble the equipment.
Don then shifted to Artificial Intelligence first working on development of The Intelligent Colony Counter, a way for biologists to scan petri dishes. This combined computer vision and artificial intelligence
He then shifted to the use of AI in industrial risk assessment where he was the lead coder in a major international project called REX (Risk Expert). This had him collaborating with some of Canada’s leading experts in Artificial Intelligence.
