Peter discusses the four-year evolutionary development of Simvana, an anesthesia simulator, from its origins in his garage office to the collaboration with a defense contractor to bring it to market as an intricately-designed open world educational system. You'll learn how technical obstacles from physics to physiology were overcome, how to manage communication complications between teams with radically disparate backgrounds, as well as how the best laid plans must sometimes be scrapped in a moment in order to be successful.
