Try to think things through for yourself Picture Quote #1

The reason it has taken so long for the robotics industry to move forward is because people keep trying to make something that is cool but difficult to achieve rather than trying to find solutions to actual human problems. Technology can be extremely expensive if you don’t focus Picture Quote #1

When you can’t shut it off, you’re a crazy person. I’m not crazy Picture Quote #1

I am the kind of guy who has never taken myself too seriously. I mean, I am very serious about what I do; I’m very serious about the creative process and everything, but at the end of the day, I am just another lucky geek who got to live out a dream, you know? Picture Quote #1
