Behind the Scenes With a Former Hasbro Director of Electrical Engineering

Bob Ruginis was the Director of Electrical Engineering at Hasbro from 1991 to 2004. For the past 15 years, he has offered turnkey product development support from brainstorming concepts through production in the consumer electronic and the electronic toy & game industries. He tells inventors that “He does contract work for large companies to pay my bills and partners with inventors to play the lottery." In this video, licensing expert Stephen Key interviews him about what it was like receiving ideas from inventors at Hasbro, the nuances of electrical engineering in the toy industry, his research and development work today, and more. Thank you Bob!
