Accelerate the scientific method with agile design of advanced magnetics

The deck right now is a trade-show story (the Jony Ive quote, "delight our senses," "Fast–Cheap–Perfection," Booth B26). An IEEE Magnetics audience of researchers and engineers came for the substance the abstract promised. Keep the narrative energy, but earn the technical credibility. The "Steve" walkthrough is a genuinely strong spine — lead each step with the engineering output, not the wow.

• The magnetization process — how maxels are written (digitally controlled micro-magnetization): the mechanism, head, and pole pitch, in a diagram.
• The current operating window — the real numbers: minimum pole size and pitch, achievable field strengths, materials and grades, geometry and size limits. This is exactly what the abstract names and what the room will ask.
• New frontiers — the "previously impractical structural geometries" you're developing toward, framed as open research directions (ideal for IEEE).
• Magnetic-circuit optimization — one slide tying the agile loop to design-space exploration that fixtures make impossible.

Send me your real figures and I'll draft these four; I've left them as labeled placeholders rather than invent numbers.

The arc is the whole "accelerate the scientific method" argument, and it's good: customer meeting → PolyVision/PMCAD design (5 min) → Ansys Maxwell simulation → production-tray print (50 min) → magnetize (2 min) → prototype magnet in 57 minutes → functional print under 2 hours → customer revision in 1 hour → optimized design in half a day. Present each beat as a phase with its output and its time, not as a reveal.

The demo slides ("and now the magic begins," prototype printing, functional prototype) were carried by the videos you stripped out. In the static deck, replace each with a labeled still or figure plus a one-line caption, and add a QR code to the video so the room can watch it. Otherwise those slides read as empty beats.

• "TIME IS MONEY" appears three to four times — keep it once as a motif.
• Merge the two near-identical timing summaries into one clean engagement-timeline slide.
• Close on the operating window and new frontiers (what this unlocks for researchers' own work), then the booth as the call to action — not the booth alone.
