Odom was instrumental in the development of the NI-STC 2, a device system timing controller for NI M Series data acquisition devices, as well as the NI synchronisation and memory core (SMC) architecture for the company's high-speed modular instruments.
He has served in many different management roles within the company, including managing top analogue engineering talent and the company's entire modular instruments team.
He is the inventor or co-inventor of 34 patents in a range of areas including bus interfacing, hardware/software interaction, reconfigurable I/O and timing and synchronisation.
With Odom's leadership, NI has had success in ASIC design, most of which released in its first version because of his high quality of work.
In addition, he has led many of the innovations and architectural successes the company has achieved in FPGA design.
Odom is not only personally innovative in his own work, he also has been a key leader in helping the company institutionalise innovation by defining a process for funding research projects and encouraging directed research on identified technology gaps.
