Hello Everyone, There are many exciting developments in Robotics and AI right now, so let's get together to learn, connect, and create more opportunities for everyone here in Austin. This event will be held in-person at [HICAM](https://www.hicam.io/event/austin-robotics-and-ai-march) from 6 pm - 8 pm. **Get your free ticket** [here.](https://www.hicam.io/event/austin-robotics-and-ai-march) **Talk 1:** The TriMech Design Process: Turning Ideas Into Production Ready Products **Talk description:** This talk provides a high level walkthrough of [TriMech Design Solutions](https://design.trimech.com/)’ streamlined, end to end product development process. Formerly known as MAKO Design before its acquisition, the team now combines startup savvy industrial design with the broader engineering, simulation, and manufacturing capabilities of TriMech. Attendees will discover how this integrated ecosystem empowers inventors, startups, and small companies to move from early sketches to manufacturable products with greater speed, clarity, and affordability. Magnus Skold and Tim Uys will guide the audience through each stage of the traditional design process, which includes research, concept development, refinement, CAD, engineering, prototyping, prototype refinement, and DFM. They will also illustrate how TriMech’s lean methodology keeps clients engaged and educated at every step. The session includes a visual breakdown of the workflow and highlights how disciplined creativity, engineering rigor, and manufacturability work together to bring ideas to life. About **Tim Uys:** [Tim Uys](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-uys-382b934/) is the Lead Designer at TriMech Design Solutions and previously served as the Director of Design at MAKO Design. He has more than 30 years of international product development experience, working with Fortune 50 corporations, startups, and independent inventors. Tim’s work has won several design awards, including the Red Dot Award, Paris Design Award, New York Design Award, and multiple additional U.S. and international honors. He has also appeared on PBS’s 'Make48' as a subject matter expert and mentor. His portfolio spans consumer products, fitness equipment, lighting, home appliances, and complex mechanical systems. Tim is recognized for combining industrial design expertise with deep engineering understanding, helping clients move from conceptual exploration to prototyping and production. His long career continues to influence hardware innovation for entrepreneurs and corporations around the world. About **Magnus Skold:** [Magnus Skold](https://www.linkedin.com/in/permagnusskold/) is a Senior Industrial Designer with over 20 years of experience creating user centered, production ready products across consumer electronics, medical devices, aerospace, lifestyle goods, and transportation. He has led more than 190 projects from concept through manufacturing, developed CMF strategies for global brands, and helped deliver award winning designs. Magnus is also an author and thought leader, publishing extensively on industrial design and AI, including his book 'Design is Fluid' and his ongoing newsletter 'Future Creative'. His career includes work such as contributions to Dell’s 14G enterprise products, aircraft seating projects, medical devices with Abbott and Stryker, and advanced telecommunications technologies. Magnus is active in the design community as a speaker and educator, including appearances at the Industrial Design Conference and leadership as the Chair of IDSA’s Austin chapter. **Talk 2:** Jon Olsen -Thermoelectrics: Physics, Pitfalls, and Practical Design **Talk description:** Thermoelectric (Peltier) coolers are one of the most misunderstood technologies in electronics. Many engineers treat them like a tiny refrigerator or simply sandwich one between a chip and a heatsink. In reality, a thermoelectric module is no more a complete cooling solution than the compressor alone is an HVAC system. Used incorrectly, they can create thermal runaway, waste power, and make systems perform worse instead of better. This lightning talk will explain how thermoelectrics actually work and where they make sense in real systems. We will look at practical robotics and embedded applications such as stabilizing thermal camera sensors, managing burst heat loads in motors and batteries, and controlling temperature in sealed systems where compressors or refrigerants are not practical. The talk will focus on the system design approach required to make thermoelectrics succeed, including the thermal stack and heat rejection. I will also briefly introduce a thermoelectric evaluation kit we are developing to help engineers experiment with TEC systems and design them correctly. I am looking for about ten beta testers from the community who are interested in trying the hardware and providing feedback. About **Jon Olsen:** [Jon Olsen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonwwo/) is a product manager at Sheetak, an Austin-based company that designs and manufactures thermoelectric cooling and generation technology. His work focuses on developing practical thermal systems and evaluation platforms that help engineers integrate thermoelectrics into real products. Jon’s background combines entrepreneurship and engineering. He has spent much of his career building hardware products and bringing electromechanical systems to market, with experience spanning thermal systems, IoT devices, and manufacturing. He enjoys working at the intersection of physics, product design, and hands-on hardware development.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

Columbus Code & Coffee is excited to partner with GiveBackHack to put on the Healthtech Impact Sprint from 3/28-3/29 at Rev1 at The Peninsula! RSVP here using promo code CODEANDCOFFEE: https://luma.com/tk2jdrxk This is a health-specific version of GBH’s traditional weekend event. Participants pitch, research, and prototype health-focused projects for a chance to earn to $5K in funding from The Columbus Foundation and IGS Energy. On Saturday, folks will pitch their idea, form teams, and build. On Sunday, they’ll finalize their pitches before showcasing their work to the community and judges. # ​Schedule ​**Sat, Mar 28** * ​​9a: Doors open & breakfast * ​9:30a: Kickoff and intros * ​​10a: Ideation session * ​​11a: Pitches & team formation * ​​12p: Working lunch * ​​2p: Mentor visits * ​​5p: Free work (optional) * ​​9p: Doors close ​​**Sun, Mar 29** * ​9a: Doors open * ​10a: Mentor visits * ​​12p: Showcase * ​​1p: Final pitches & awards * ​​2p: Wrap *** # ​ FAQs ​**Do all ideas have a chance at getting funded?** ​​Not all ideas will move forward after initial pitches on Saturday. Once pitches are complete, we’ll vote for top ideas and form teams around the 4 – 7 ideas with the most votes. You must recruit **at least four total team members** (including the founder) to move forward and have a chance at getting funded on Sunday. If your idea doesn’t move forward, you can join another team! ​​**Do I have to submit my idea online prior to the event?** ​​Unlike previous years, we don’t have the option to submit your idea online prior to the event. Instead, everyone will be going through a brainstorming exercise on Saturday that’ll help you prepare for your initial pitch. ​​**Will we be working for 24 hours straight?** ​​Nope. The event is split over two days. You’ll be building on Saturday and pitching on Sunday. ​​**Do I have to pitch an idea?** ​​Nope. You can also simply join a team. ​​**What types of entrepreneurs does GBH support?** ​​While GBH most often works with technology startups, we support *any* organization (for- or non-profit) that makes an impact on health in the US or across the world.
