Jeff Linnell, CEO/founder of https://formant.io/ visited the Device Invention class to discuss his ecosystem for internet-controlled robots, cameras, and more. Students were able to drive the Boston Dynamics robot "Spot" around his studio remotely. Jeff's work ties together design, engineering, and business, with creativity and experimentation. There's so much vision, even on projects that don't have an obvious pathway. It was honestly a little overwhelming to think about the diversity of ambitious projects in which Jeff has participated. Nevertheless, this was a genuine end-of-semester treat! Now, back to controlling our relatively simple Raspberry Pi IoT projects. Gotta start somewhere.
