      Yes, I do experiments every day pretty much! They form the basis of what I do. You can’t design something new without testing it a lot…

      I do a lot of experiments. Most of them are things will electronic circuits or sensors. I also spend a lot of time building things, so that involves a lot of tiny experiments – like trial and error.

      In my job, we don’t really do a lot of formal experiments, but we do a lot of electrical testing of new circuits we have designed, which are a lot like experiments.
      In other cases, where we have a faulty product, we would have to carry out a number of tests to determine what is damaged, and possibly what caused the issue in the first place.
