Bluetooth And Wireless Test Engineer at Gamepad Tester

Diagnoses packet drops, jitter and dropouts on controllers tested over wireless.

Liam works on Bluetooth Low Energy and wireless input. Most pairing complaints are not really pairing problems: they are packet drops, signal jitter or interference from a crowded 2.4GHz band, and they look completely different on a trace than they do to the player. He tests how controllers behave over distance, through walls, alongside other wireless devices, and on the proprietary dongles that several brands ship.

On Gamepad Tester he answers the pairing and dropout questions and verifies fixes over both Bluetooth and adapter connections.
