Wednesdays at MSE

I've decided to (try) to have regular posts about MSE on Wednesdays. MSE is where I work. We design, manufacture, market, and sell miniature optical velocity sensors.

Miniature, meaning reduced in size relative to comparable sensors.

Optical, not meaning eyeball, but referring to the optical devices and elements such as lasers and lenses that are used to build these sensors.

Velocity, meaning, well, velocity.

Sensor, meaning a device that makes measurements (for our intents and purposes it does). Our sensors measure velocity. Specifically and uniquely our sensors measure the velocity inside of a flow.

If anyone from MSE reads this, or anyone who can beef up my descriptions, by all means leave it in the comment section. I didn't want to rattle on too much and bore people away from my perky blog.

Now that I've explained the brief technical part, allow me to introduce you all to Jojo.

Aside from enjoying basking in a warm patch of sunshine on the carpet in the middle of the office where anyone can accidentally walk on him, Jojo also likes to attack every delivery person and stranger that walks in the doors. This is generally a pain for whoever tries to get him to quiet down (Zizi, Dariush, Sherri, me), but sometimes its really funny because he is a 9 lb Pomeranian. He gets especially frenzied if you pick him up and hold him till the person has left, then as soon as you put him down he sprints to the door and barks at the person walking away. He likes to wait till the coast is clear to really show his might.

I will try to catch him in the act and post a video later today. And here it is (not Jojo's best work, but it'll do):

He's usually much more threatening and entertaining. I'll see if we get a better Jojo clip by next Wednesday's "Wednesdays at MSE".

Next week I will explain our miniLDV sensor and also introduce you all to another member of MSE.
