Think by Making
summary
Claims that Think by Making, Deliver by Demo speeds design by prototyping with expedient tech and demos; examples include a 9 ft x 32 ft wall of 2500 IR addressable lights used at SXSW, a bar with RFID that displays per-person beer counts (one tag showed 277), a touchscreen-printer mule iterated 56 iterations that saves engineering time, a Roomba-like robot that rakes a zen garden, and a room-sized projector/vision demo that mostly works.
