Some projects

Haven't posted in a bit. Thought I'd share some projects I've been working on.

Park Bench

I had a dream about designing this bench, so I threw it into solidworks.
Hot or not? I'd like the back to maybe twist once.

Origami in Vegas

I'm excited to finally be able to show you some of the projects I've been working on in the past 4 months. 4 Moms debuted the world's first power folding stroller and the Mamaroo bouncerswing at the ABC kid's show in Las Vegas this past week. Response was tremendous, from the Mamaroo winning the innovation award to IDEO stopping by to tell me it was beautiful, to a bunch of job offers, but I'm pretty happy at Thorley Industries. Ps... search 4 moms automatic stroller on youtube to see it in action!
J Bare better buy one!

Robo Cop

I saw this thing in Penn Station on patrol. To me it looks like they took it off the set of Robo Cop.

In my opinion well designed police equipment should not look like a toy. Ideally police equipment should command respect without appearing menacing. This thing falls in the silly category. I don't know if I could take anyone seriously that pulled up in one of them.

...but its not as bad as this

analog

just saw this on gizmodo, its the top view of a point and soot dig. camera. i love the analog gauges for battery life and memory space.

what other gadgets could use a return to analog details?
what about a analog clock on a cell phone, maybe over top the corner of the screeen..
