PARTS Monthly Meetup: Show & Tell with Geoff Rhoads (Transformative Optics Corporation)
Join us for an interactive, behind-the-scenes look at cutting-edge optical technology with Geoff Rhoads, founder of Transformative Optics Corporation.

Rather than a traditional slide deck, Geoff will lead a show-and-tell style presentation featuring images of array cameras, sample outputs, and the company’s unique lens designs. The format is intentionally informal and conversational, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions as the visuals unfold. We’ll wrap up with an open Q&A session (about 5–15 minutes) for deeper discussion.

If you’re interested in robotics, computer vision, imaging systems, or novel optical hardware, this will be a great chance to see real technology in action and engage directly with some of the inventors behind it.
As always, all experience levels are welcome—come curious and ready to ask questions!
