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.

Reading more than one source on a topic | Reading | Khan Academy
Hello readers! Today I want to talk to you about why we read more than one text on one topic, and to show you why I shall use a subject that is very near and dear to my heart: animals that can kill you. This is not a joke; I legitimately wrote a book abou…

Addition using groups of 10 and 100 | 2nd grade | Khan Academy
[Voiceover] So, let’s do some practice problems on Khan Academy exercises that make us rewrite an addition problem so that we can get them to rounder numbers. Numbers that might be multiples of 10, or multiples of 100. So, let’s see here, I have 63 plus…
