Retired Engineer Builds Necktie-Tying Robot: A Mechanical Marvel

The transcript describes a 65-year-old engineer, Goldstein, who spent six years creating a necktie tying robot with 350 movements. Inspired by a childhood visit to a chocolate wrapping machine, Goldstein pursued mechanical engineering. Despite the robot's complexity, it is impractical, taking nine minutes to tie a tie and costing $250,000. Ironically, Goldstein dislikes ties. The robot will be displayed at the Franklin Institute.
