The Hybrid Engineer: Merging Core Engineering With Tech Through OT/IT Convergence In Industry 4.0

​Ever had a project idea sitting in your notebook and no clear sense of how to get it onto a real circuit board? This session from IEEE Babcock is built to close that gap. We'll walk through the path from a rough concept to a working embedded product, covering how to explore an idea, test it quickly, and shape it into something that can actually be built and used.

​Expect a practical look at the stages that matter most: choosing the right hardware and tools, prototyping early, learning from what breaks, and refining a design until it's ready for the real world. Whether you're just starting out with microcontrollers or already have a few builds behind you, you'll leave with a clearer roadmap and fresh ideas for your next project. Join us online, bring your questions, and come ready to turn curiosity into something you can build.
