????Ajinder Singh, 38 ????Systems Manager, Building Automation ????Texas Instruments ????No. 233 ????“In my spare time I like to open up stuff to see how it works.” ????As a hobby, Ajinder Singh dissects candy machines and remote-controlled cars. At his office he cracks open “smart” building devices—Internet-connected thermostats, air-quality sensors, surveillance cameras—to improve them. A recent feat? Singh and his team designed a way for the gadgets to harvest indoor light, saving energy, money, and (in some cases) the need for replacing batteries. “Engineering is my passion,” he says.
