Introduction
Welcome to the first blog post of Tobi’s Prototyping Barn! I’m thrilled to share my journey, inspirations, and the exciting projects I’m working on. Do you remember the scene from Transformers Age of Extinction where Mark Wahlberg is a struggling inventor? He has this barn on his property where he builds exciting tech. This is my dream, to have my own workshop and just build exciting technology, inspired by sci-fi, spy movies, and fiction.
The Beginning of My Journey
My name is Tobias, and I’m an Aerospace Engineer with a passion for technology, sci-fi, superheroes, and nerd culture. My fascination with technology began at a young age. Lego, science fiction movies and comic books all fueled my passion. This passion, after some detours, ultimately led me to pursue a career in aerospace engineering. Here I learned the intricacies of rocket engine design and advanced engineering principles.
From Aerospace to Prototyping
While I now pursue my PhD in aerospace, I realized that my passion lays in creating and inventing – turning the imaginative ideas from my favorite movies and books into real-world technology. This realization inspired me to start Tobi’s Prototyping Barn, a place where I could combine my engineering skills with my love for sci-fi and fantasy.
Bringing Imagination to Life
At Tobi’s Prototyping Barn, I’m dedicated to building innovative and exciting technology. From autonomous drones and AI workshop assistants to exoskeletons and Iron Man-inspired helmets with AR, the projects that I have in mind are a blend of advanced engineering and creative imagination. Each project is a step towards turning fiction into reality and pushing the boundaries of what I can achieve with technology
What’s Next?
In the future, I’ll be sharing detailed posts about the projects I’m working on, including behind-the-scenes looks, technical challenges, and step-by-step guides. I’m excited to take you on this journey with me and show you how science fiction can inspire real-world innovation.
