I design a new product every month.
The Product Copilot is an Ai resource to support engineers, makers, and product creators as a strategic partner through the process of product development. Building new products is exciting — it's also messy, nonlinear, and full of unknowns. I've been experimenting with the use of OpenAI products
Additive manufacturing/3D printing (AM) is a powerful tool—no doubt about it. Even with all the progress in material options and cost efficiency, AM still often struggles with surface finish and geometric precision, especially for flexible materials. Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) thermoset resins, such as certain silicones and polyurethanes,
Over the last 2 years I have developed a surgical device alongside two remarkable neurosurgeons. After 200 prototypes, we have created a solution to a simple, yet pervasive problem present in the majority of brain and spine surgeries. A few of the milestones we achieved this month were submitting our
Do you have an idea or project that keeps coming back to you? I've been drawn to backpack concepts with printable, machined and/or customizable features for over a decade. This month's chapter yielded a mix of wins and failures--par for the course in time constrained,
SKIT is a sketching kit aimed to provide easy transportation and use of pens/pencils/markers/sharpeners/erasers and loose papers. In my case, that'll be for product design sketching, but perhaps you have a different way you use and transport paper and marking tools, especially when you
