I am a creative guy from Switzerland with many years of experience in software development and mechanical engineering. Ever since I was a child, I have loved to build devices with electrical components for fun. Since microcontrollers and 3d-printers became cheap and available for the masses, I became even more interested in hardware development.
The inspiration for new projects comes from all the small things and interactions in daily life, which are not as perfect and smooth as they should be. Building devices is also a fun way to learn and understand technologies. I seek to make the projects simple and functional. Yet, especially for my wife, I also try to give them beautiful and unique designs.
I will try to pass on some of my knowledge to you with this website, and I am happy if you got inspiration from a project on this site or learned something new.
