Hi! My name is Martijn van Ark. I am a
creative Software Architect / Engineer, and I'm very passionate
and dedicated to my work. With 20 years of experience, I have
acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to make any project
a success.
Well-versed in numerous programming languages and environments
for Desktop, Mobile and Web based development, making for a
flexible and broad spectrum of possibilities.
What started as a hobby quickly turned into a passion. Now more
then 20 years later I still greatly enjoy writing practical code
to get "to the point" solutions with a "getting things done"
approach
Short turn around's and quick prototyping allow for a pragmatic
perspective in development. This enables me to use my
creativeness to bring out amazing and sometime unorthodox
solutions and results
Being able to let go of routinely standards and practices
provides a fresh approach to development cycles. This "out of
the box" way provides off beat an individualistic results and
solutions.
Software development, App development and Web development.
Whether is just partial or a project in its entirety, anything
is possible. Making for flexible and multifaceted applicability
of my abillities
Scanactive is the beating heart of the multi platform Check4ID application. It consists of public and private backends, frontends and API's
Check4ID is mainly an iPhone and Android app that read and processes various electronic identity documents using OCR and NFC.
Check4ID NOW incorporates extend functionality that enables users to quickly and easily verify their customer or end-users identity and check their information.
DocviewStudio is a PC based total sulution for identity document reading. It supports various forms of supplemental scanner and output devices
ValidateDMx is the complete 2D quality validation system for Data Matrix ECC 200 codes. It is designed to work on all types of direct marking (DPM) and label marking applications.
Phoenix is a multiplatform Datamatrix decoding and verification solution. It is core of validateDMX and implements numerous international standards.
Online creation storing , management and printing of numerous types of barcode types. With emphasis on correctly generating and encoding complex barcode types such as UID, GS1 and more.
Dynamic Sleep Tracking and monitoring with emphasis on regaining control and support for CPAP usage and tracking. Online environment + Android app. Visual representations and entry of data make for easy monitoring.
Online Inventory management combined with project support for electrical parts. Easily keep track of your currently available small parts stock. Supports per project booking, BOM's , Ordering etc.
ScanID is, of sorts, a partial re-establishment of VDE ID
Solutions. Did a complete re-evaluation, redesign and rewrite
of previous software, resulting in the completely new
DocviewStudio software packages.
Responsible for
the Check4ID App's for Android and iOS, as well as Check4ID
NOW. This includes OCR en NFC reading of identity documents
for Android and iOS.
Created the
ScanActive.com Online platform which powers extended features
of Check4ID and other applications. Consisting of frontends,
backends and API's, both public and private.
All
elements can communicate and or enable their users to
integrate reading results in their own applications.
Performed the initial development regarding hardware and
software for ICAO based identity document scanning and
processing.
This includes communication with
different types of devices and protocols as well as ICAO
compatible NFC chip access and reading of e-Passports, e-ID 's
and e-Drivers licenses.
Further development of Datamatrix algorithms as well as the PC
Based ValidateDMX Software to process the decoding of
Datamatrix codes for extended validation / verification
according to various international standards and
specifications.
Also did R&D and wrote
software for managing and configuring the company's unique
build barcode scanners (both fixed and portable).
R&D and software/algorithm development for multi platform
and embedded decoding of 2D Datamatrix Symbols. Specifically
with regards to Direct Part Marking symbols on hard to read
surfaces and their validation / verification.
Whenever time and circumstances permit I will take on
freelance and/or voluntary passion projects ranging from
software / web development to graphics oriented projects, as
well as electrical engineering.
Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience. You need experience to gain wisdom
"Technische Informatica" is an IT discipline and a branch
of technology that deals with everything that lies on the
border of electrical engineering and IT. Computer technicians
use principles from electrical engineering, software design,
and hardware-software integration.
Technical
computer science focuses more on the mathematical and physical
foundations of computer science.
"Werktuigbouwkunde" or mechanical engineering is an
engineering branch that combines engineering physics and
mathematics principles with materials science to design,
analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems.
After
2 years i internally transferred to Technische Informatica
