Occasionally I still get an opportunity to contribute to product concept ideation. While I am not at liberty to explain my crude prototype, pictured here, I can say that I have thoroughly enjoyed participating with members of my organization, wearing my engineer hat in place of my VP hat, to solve an interesting design challenge for a future iRobot product. Work has been incredibly demanding over the past month or so as my team readied two major new products for launch, the first ones to be developed entirely on my watch. I am extremely proud of my engineering team and all that they have accomplished. I can’t wait till these new babies hit the shelves.
