All in all, the Chisti bottle-based ventilator shows what can be achieved by stripping an idea down to its basic principles. Effectiveness, it neatly demonstrates, need not always go hand in hand with high tech.
Can't be said enough.
- nine_k 8y agoIt's the typical path of "crude conceptual prototype -> complicated advanced solution -> highly optimized stripped-down late version" constantly seen in engineering, especially in software where iterations are fast. I hope that much of today's advanced, complicated, and expensive tech will eventually make that next step to simplification based on huge accumulated experience and knowledge.
