Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolIr Bos is an associate professor and experimental computer engineer in Kongsberg, Norway, who pioneers post-binary computing by designing and fabricating ternary systems that use 0, 1 and 2 to boost density, efficiency and security. He leads the Ternary Research Group, developing CNTFET-based logic, multi-state memristor storage, and open-source EDA tools for mixed-radix VLSI, including a C-to-ternary compiler and a novel ternary-first REBEL ISA. His work blends simulation and hands-on wafer-scale prototyping through collaborations with industry partners and has produced multiple IEEE conference papers, tape-outs, and public open repositories. Before academia he spent years as a senior R&D engineer building ambitious geospatial and AR/VR systems—ranging from a country-wide 3D digital twin generator to an indoor AR navigation app for the visually impaired. He holds an MSc from TU Delft and emphasizes practical teaching and supervision across analog electronics, embedded AI and smart systems. An unusual strength is his ability to span low-level device physics to high-level tooling, turning speculative MVL concepts into runnable hardware and usable software.
