Finally, an update from the interns! After a month and a half of design, explosions, and other vaguely engineering-related activities, we've completed our first wave of epic projects. Shooting begins this weekend, so be on the lookout for new videos in the coming weeks. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you can be the first to receive updates about our new endeavors. Remember, this is just a taste of the awesomeness yet to come!
The Waterloo Labs Interns started two weeks ago and are already knee-deep in projects. We have some pretty ambitious projects lined up for this summer, so prepare for the awesome. We also got a chance last week to check out the Austin Dev Center, a new project intended to help engineering and fabrication start-ups and hobbyists. They have a sweet set-up just down the road from our office, so we will definitely be back to visit. Stay tuned for new videos coming in the next two weeks featuring our new interns, Peter, Dylan, Tim and Humphrey.
Waterloo Labs has been invited to participate in this years Gadget Show Live in Birmingham, UK, on April 12-17. We will be showing off a new lower-cost version of our eye control gaming system in the Future Tech Zone. Be sure to look out for some new videos in the coming days showing off our new system. This will be Waterloo Labs' first international trip-- hopefully there will be many more.
We have been working on this one for a while, but I can now announce that Waterloo Labs will be hiring four summer interns in 2011. We have so many great project ideas, but we need your help to continue to grow Waterloo Labs. Working with National Instruments, we are offering a 10 to 12-week PAID internship in Austin, TX for summer 2011. The team of interns will work together on a wide variety of projects that will all be documented on YouTube and our other channels. Since we want to get started right away, we are looking for well-qualified engineering and computer science students who have a passion for projects and a diverse design, fabrication, and programming background. Depending on your schools requirements you may even be able to get a class credit for this internship (bonus).
The application is online and ready to go. Video resumes and web portfolios are highly encouraged so be sure to add links in your application cover letter. We are looking forward to seeing great candidates and will be setting up phone and Skype interviews for our best candidates.
Update:
The application deadline has passed. If you want to see the intern team in action, be sure to subscribe to the Waterloo Labs YouTube Channel. If you would still like to get involved sign up for our mailing list, so you will be included on our future crowd source projects.
