Chris DiSalvatore

Chris DiSalvatore (born October 7, 1960 in Bangor, Maine) is an American mechanical engineer, who in 1997, was selected for inclusion in the Marquis Who's Who in Science and Engineering, Who's Who in America, and Who's Who in the World publications for his outstanding career achievements. The inclusion into the publication was made after a summary of DiSalvatore's primary career accomplishments was submitted to the Marquis Who's Who board of advisors. The board consists of engineering professors from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, as well as mathematics professors, executive directors, and presidents of various educational institutions and organizations throughout the United States.Among DiSalvatore's main contributions in engineering include pioneering the integration of computer aided design into research applications in the aerospace defense industry in the 1980's with Northrop Corporation (now Northrop Grumman) in Hawthorne, California. DiSalvatore's design work contributed to the further refinement of laser navigation system accuracy. His detailed design work on newly developed gyroscope hardware provided the instructions necessary to manufacture the hardware that resulted in achieving navigation accuracy goals that had not yet been reached in the industry. His engineering accomplishments also include the conceptual design and engineering of the hardware for the first "on-the-fly" galvanometric low-inertia scanning laser marking system at Control Micro Systems, Inc. in Orlando, Florida.DiSalvatore graduated from the University of Maine at Orono, Maine in 1982 with a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering.
