Indeed Amazing!

I had heard about it quite sometime ago but never bothered to check what they actually came up with.

Check out the pictures of car on their website showing difference between conventional suspension & BOSE suspension.

This is cool.. its as if the car was hovering over the bumps and potholes! As well as checking the pictures, check out the Quicktime videos too (especially the demo course).

This is one of the best companies with the head as a south asian Dr. Amar Bose! This is truly an engineering marvel! I hope I or Biggie can get someone from their R&D dpt for an interview.

*EDIT*

Well for the past 20 mins I couldnt find any engineer or an address! But I did find something useful for all of us, if we like to work somewhere prestigious.

This gives a list of JOBS at BOSE and what are the requirements.

(IDEA: Biggie why dont we all, from time to time, post new innovations and inventions and profiles of different companies and discuss about the JOB OPERTUNITIES, ENGINEERING REQUIREMENTS and other vital information for us engineers from that particular company.)

Yea, those are neat ideas. Maybe we can implement them in the restructuring for 2nd CE Birthday?

Did you know Dr Amar's son Vanu has his own company too? Called Vanu Inc. They make innovative software radio technology that allows the combination of different radio standards into one platform. For example, GSM and CDMA standards operating from the same base station! It can also be adapted for future standards. Kinda cool..

Vanu Bose is the President and CEO of Vanu, Inc. Vanu earned all of his degrees from MIT, receiving his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) in 1999, his Master’s degree in EECS in 1992, and two Bachelor’s degrees, one in EECS and one in Math, in 1988. As a graduate student, Vanu worked on the MIT SpectrumWare project at the MIT lab for Computer Science, an effort to bring a software oriented approach to wireless communication and distributed signal processing. There, he performed the software radio research that would later evolve into Vanu, Inc. Prior to graduate school, Vanu developed a technical teaching curriculum and onboard medical, computer and satellite communications systems for a DC-10 flying hospital for Project Orbis, a private, non-profit organization dedicated to fighting world blindness. Vanu currently serves on the Board of Director for Jumpstart, a non-profit focused on early childhood literacy, and is also a member of the Board of Overseers for the Boston Museum of Science
