Outdoor Media (o-Media)
Dr Robert Illes worked for 10 years in the Outdoor Media / Outdoor Advertising Industry. Running R&D departments, he has been responsible for the design, development and installation of a range of small format illuminated advertising units and lighting components  across UK and abroad. He has supplied all the majors and several of the minor UK Outdoor Advertising Companies. A seminal authoring project involved the design and conducting of a UK-wide training course for Clear Channel UK on the use of small format advertising units and components.

Some empirical research within the field of optics, sometimes working with Cambridge academics, has led to some patented innovations: 2 inventions for curing “lamp striping” (one of which has been adopted extensively on the London Underground metro), also 1 invention for a post mounted mechanism and 1 invention for a fault reporting system.
