alumni spotlight 16 | theLAKER Justin Castronovo ’19, shown at the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) shipyard in Philadelphia, works on the Aegis Ashore land-based missile defense system. WHEN HMI DEVELOPMENT IS YOUR DREAM JOB Naval personnel operating ballistic missile defenses need to know the status of those systems at a glance. That means someone has to figure out how to collect, aggregate and present a range of data in an easy-to-understand visual format on a computer monitor or touch screen. Such readouts are called human-machine interfaces, or HMIs. For Justin Castronovo ’19, building them is his dream job. Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) are everywhere – think smart phones – and most people take them for granted. Not Justin Castronovo ’19.
