Words which best describe me: enthusiastic
I love it when... something finally works right.
I hate it when... it stops working when you close the lid
I can't seem to get enough... time to work on my ongoing projects
I always seem to have enough... distractions
I hope I always... have the time and energy to create
I wish I could... win the lottery and devote myself to doing what I enjoy most
I could never... be bored
I hope I never... have to fill out an application form this detailed again
More & Less:
- more time for fun, less time required working to pay for it
- more communication and collaboration, less working in isolation
- more general purpose new technic parts, less special purpose big parts
Rules I try to live by:
- Always push the envelope
- If someone says its impossible, they just don't know how yet
- Enthusiastically nuture enthusiasm in others
Additional comments:
My main interest is in extending the capabilities of general purpose robotics systems like RIS through the design of easy to construct electronic and mechanical extensions.
