John Galinato is the founder and project leader at Build-It- Yourself in Cambridge, MA. After receiving a Master's degree in electrical engineering from Cornell, John worked on engineering teams to develop a submarine detection system, the lunar landing module, telemetry for a Venus fly- by, the Patriot missile system, computer graphics software and Web applications for more than 25 years. Huan Liu is the partner and project manager at Build-It- Yourself. He has a BS degree in Computer Science from MIT and is currently a graduate student at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab. His research is about robot manipulation planning under uncertainty. Before college, Huan was the president of the robotics club in Shanghai Southwest Weiyu Middle School and had won over 20 awards in competitions. He went to Research Science Institute at MIT in 2005 and was voted Rickoid of the Year.
