      Not yet, but I am sure this might happen in the future, when I will actually get to build my own robots.

      We usually build prototypes out of recycled wood – it looks pretty good and fits the purpose.

      We used plastic bottles as a basis for an office garden as well.

      Hi Naina, I actually recently set up a laptop re-use program with our IT department.

      Computers are a big part of our company and too keep up to speed we replace our engineers laptops every 2 years. The old ones are still perfectly usable, just not the latest technology. Instead of throwing them away, we now donate them to local schools and coding clubs.
