Pick and place machines are basically robots.
But I think that there will be more and more and more.
And so this is part of the bet that we're making.
My take on this is
The biggest cultural disconnect, which by the way, this is something that when I was visiting and living in Hong Kong, you see in spades, is that a lot of the result of being able to just send your designs, kind of like ivory tower, you are designing in the US and then sending to manufacturers somewhere else.
You're obstructing the manufacturing somewhere else.
You can't
kind of don't feel that pain.
The pain is really disconnected, and that's why the design for manufacturing muscle atrophies.
I think that more so than the know-how on the line, it's this idea that the person that designs the board will be the same that manufactures it, or very close, like they're friends, for example.
If you look at a lot of electrical engineering design done in China, it's designed
even if it doesn't matter, so that it's easy to make.
It's visceral.
I had this friend who would... I was like, why do you make your boards so crammed?
Why just do it on double side?
He looks at me and he's like, but then you have to do two passes on the SMT line.
And I'm like...
But it's not you.
It's like, no, but it's like, you know, I know the person who's going to do it.
And it's like, my board is going to arrive later and it's going to be more expensive.
