For the third year in a row, 219 was invited to speak to the Smart Product Design (ME218) class at Stanford. The founding partners of 219 are proud alumni of the class, which teaches graduate students the fundamentals of mechatronic (mechanical + electronic + software) design.

Dan and Dave discussed their experiences using ME218 concepts in real world product development.  After the lecture they fielded students' questions ranging from “How did you choose to be an LLC?” to “How important is it to learn how to design PCBs?”
