Simone Giertz is a Swedish inventor known for her love of Robotics.

Simone love of “useless” inventions came after studying at Stockholm, where she was inspired by the local open-source hardware community. This has evolved into one of the biggest YouTube robotics channels that showcases her inspiring – but often useless – robotics projects.

An alarm clock that slaps the user
A lipstick applier
A robot to shampoos a user’s hair
