Who is Don Millard?
Dr. Don Millard is a Program Director at the National Science Foundation. Prior to joining NSF, he was a faculty member at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the originator of the Mobile Studio Project. In 1999 he started thinking about a way to enable students to perform experiments anytime, anyplace - specifically those that use an oscilloscope, function generator, digital control, and some form of power supply. He started the Mobile Studio project by looking at commercially available solutions, which were prohibitively expensive; while choosing to involve students in bringing the project’s vision to reality. Jason Coutermarsh, then a student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, joined the project in the summer of 2004 and they developed a complete functional input/output board hardware/software prototype. With the support of several technology companies and the National Science Foundation, the Mobile Studio Project is now being utilized to enhance science, math, engineering and technology education around the world.
