You can follow me on Twitter @JustinRatliff as I tweet about projects, research and robotics news.
J2R Scientific is owned and operated by Justin R. Ratliff. I was the President of The Robotics Club of Yahoo (TRCY - the First world wide all online robotics club) when it was active. I have been a robotic enthusiast and robot builder since age 5. I hold many IT certifications. I have over 10 years of manufacturing development and prototyping experience. And I have over 20 years of combined amateur and professional robot building knowledge. I also currently work for a large heath insurance company in their enterprise wide technology department.
Learning is a life long passion for me and besides robotics I am drawn towards the subjects of artificial intelligence and how the human mind works, as well as music, painting and history.

Developed the autonomous fighting robot contest for TRCY in 1999, which is possibly the first autonomous fighting robot contest.
Developed, marketed and produced a small customizable robot kit called TRaCY. TRaCY was developed jointly with engineers from OptoTronics and Hewlett-Packard, along with support from Parallax, Inc. This small robot was easily programmable with a PC. Could run autonomously once programmed. Was designed as a first robot for beginners to the hobby. Buyers of the TRaCY ranged from 14-year-olds in Iowa, to NASA JPL engineers who used the robot in a youth outreach program, to a Professor at the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies. The TRaCY robot kit was exported to Canada, The UK, Germany, Turkey and New Zealand. http://members.tripod.com/RoBoJRR/tracy.htm
