The design of a modular, reconfigurable weapon symbolizes a spirit of bold experimentation and unwavering perseverance. Inspired by the form and function of medieval jousting lances, even if it is destroyed in the first charge, a hidden sword can be drawn from its core to press on toward the goal. The broken blades and unfinished prototypes scattered around represent the trial-and-error process—each one a step in refining raw ideas into the solution that exists today.
