Prototype This Team

Meet the engineers and PhD's who've found a dream job coming up with solutions for today's challenges by using new technologies to build the craziest, one-of-a-kind prototypes of tomorrow.

JOE GRAND
Electronics and Circuit Design: Finds the unconventional approach to any challenge. A maverick who runs his own business and wants to see less welding and more circuit boards on television.

TERRY SANDIN
Animatronics and Fabrication: Likes to take charge but does so on his own time and schedule. Got a problem with that? Well, who needs a Ph.D. when you come from the “you need it when?!” school of special effects?

ZOZ BROOKS
Robotics and Computing Systems: If there's esoteric tech research out there – he knows about it. Thoughtful and well-versed in a wide range of subjects, he enjoys teaming up with the other guys to demystify complex, cutting-edge technologies.

MIKE NORTH
Materials and Mechanical Engineering: Got a problem? He'll solve it. Whether employing engineering rigor or reaching out into the world of cutting edge technology, he finds a solution. And watch out for his "experiments" as he puts the fun into science.
