Root3 Labs

Root3 Labs is an engineering and product development firm. We focus on the design of medical devices and early stage technologies. We work with doctors, manufacturers, and the defense industry to turn ideas into working prototypes and prototypes into finished products. The company is a registered professional engineering firm in the State of Maryland. Root3 Labs was founded in 2012 by Chad Schneider, P.E., a professional engineer with two decades of engineering R&D and product design experience. Mr. Schneider grew up in Maryland and was educated locally, with a BS in mechanical engineering from the University of Maryland, College Park and a Master's of Science in Engineering (M.S.E.) focused on Haptics and Medical Robotics from the Johns Hopkins University. At home and at work, Chad enjoys digging into challenging technical problems, whether that means designing a microfluidic pump from scratch to cut costs from the Bill of Materials or breathing new life into a neglected bicycle (or computer, or motorcycle, or house). Prior to founding Root3 Labs, he worked as a project manager and/or senior engineer on the development of numerous products.
