John S.

I'm an independent inventor and product developer with over 30 years of professional experience in mechanical design, electromechanical systems, industrial automation, research and development, and hands-on prototype construction.

I hold three patents spanning mechanical, electrical, and software design. I've spent much of my career turning ideas into functional products, developing innovative mechanisms, solving unusual engineering problems, and building equipment that performs tasks conventional solutions cannot accomplish.

I founded and operated my own product-development and manufacturing business, bringing original inventions through prototype development, testing, refinement, production, and commercialization.

My specialty is taking an idea that exists only in someone's imagination and figuring out how to make it work.

I work with individual inventors, entrepreneurs, and small businesses who need practical, creative assistance developing new products, mechanical devices, experimental equipment, and electromechanical systems.

Invention Development & Proof-of-Concept Prototyping

- Invention concept evaluation and feasibility
- Mechanical and electromechanical invention development
- Functional proof-of-concept prototype construction
- Mechanical problem-solving and design improvement
- Experimental testing and iterative development
- Industrial automation and control-system concepts
- Custom mechanisms and specialized equipment

Custom Kinetic Sculpture, Imagineering & Mechanical Art

I also specialize in imagineering — combining imagination, engineering, and artistic creativity to bring unusual ideas to life.

I design and build custom kinetic sculptures, animated mechanical artwork, electromechanical displays, and one-of-a-kind creations that incorporate movement, mechanical ingenuity, and visual interest.

My approach goes beyond traditional sculpture. I develop the mechanisms, motion systems, electrical controls, and physical structures needed to transform an imaginative concept into a functioning artistic creation.

Hands-On Development

I'm not limited to computer-generated designs. I have decades of experience personally fabricating, assembling, troubleshooting, testing, and improving the products and mechanisms I develop.

If you have an invention idea, a difficult technical challenge, or an imaginative mechanical creation in mind, I'd welcome the opportunity to discuss how we might bring it to life.
