Q&A: An Interview with Manuel Podszus, ZELLATON

MANUEL PODSZUS: I try to always use cutting-edge technology. For instance, I designed a mounting device for 3-D measurements on car doors, which require extremely low tolerances, for Daimler AG. Later, I was active in the field of micro-robot technology. In everything, I strive to find the perfect solution.
