Saw this one yesterday on reddit. Good watch.
That is very cool. I can’t wait to try it and blow my boss away next week. Maybe even use it for our training sessions in a few days.

I saw Johnny Lee’s video and thought this guy was a genius. After viewing this video, I didn’t realize how much has happened since then and more innovation that he’s exposed. I admire that he lets people download and build on his research rather than try to sell it off or keep it to himself. He will be successful either way but will be remembered by encouraging the community. Cheers to Johnny
