Hi, I'm Alex. This is Brandon and Mike, and together with our trusty prototype Marvin, we are Varden Labs.

I've been programming since I was 13 years old. I was ranked as one of the top 20 programmers in Canada in high school, and most recently, I worked as a software engineering intern at Khan Academy in Mountain View.

I'm Mike. I do mechanical stuff at Varden Labs. I've done mechanical stuff all my life. I built my own fully custom 3D printer, electric scooter, and most recently worked at a YC alum, Thalmic Labs, as their mechanical intern.

Hi, I'm Brandon, and I'm doing software and electrical. Before Barton Labs, I had worked at three startups, all with aggressive development confidence. The most recent was an artificial intelligence company where I was programming robots to interact with their environment.

The three of us were in the same mechatronics engineering class at the University of Waterloo. We've lived together for the last two years and worked on lots of projects together. This is by far our favorite, and we're really excited to see how it's going to transform the future of transportation.

TIL: We Could Give Mars Our "Cooties" | Today I Learned

Human beings are really dangerous to the surface of Mars. Let’s say life did exist on the surface of Mars; would it be able to withstand the bacteria, the viruses, all of the bad things that we have on Earth, without having the protection? Because it’s ne…

What's it Like to Play Football in Space? | StarTalk

A lot of different venues in space where you can transplant sport. Often when people think in space, they think in a weightless environment, but that’s not realistic. What’s more realistic is playing a sport, say football, on the surface of another planet…

[Music] Lots of people who have tried before us had failed, and all of their aircraft are scattered across the ice cap. You ready? Oh yeah! When thinking about flying a tiny helicopter across the North Atlantic, the answer is no, way too dangerous, ab…

Graphing exponential functions | Mathematics III | High School Math | Khan Academy

We’re told to use the interactive graph below to sketch a graph of ( y = -2 \cdot 3^x + 5 ). And so this is clearly an exponential function right over here. Let’s think about the behavior as ( x ) changes. When ( x ) is very negative or when ( x ) is ver…
