Detroit Historical Museum Michigan Innovation Dollar Event

Capturing History at the Michigan Innovation Dollar Launch

2 weeks ago Posted by Mike Uncategorized

On April 8, 2025, I had the incredible opportunity to be part of a major event at the Detroit Historical Museum celebrating the official release of the Michigan Innovation Dollar. The event drew a large crowd and was covered by local news stations, reporters, and several coin publications, making it a memorable day for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.

The Honorable Steve Bieda organized the event

I was invited to document the event through photography, capturing the excitement, special moments, and of course, receiving my own Michigan Innovation Dollar. My photos highlighted the spirit of the day and were later featured by the Polish American Numismatic Society and Money.org.

Mike Rosik

I bring over 20 years of experience in creative and technical design and development, with a specialization in user experience and design prototyping. I hold a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Computer Animation and have worked across diverse industries, including automotive, education, software, visual effects, and startups.  I’m also an FAA licensed drone pilot based in Oxford, Michigan.

In recent years, I have actively leveraged emerging technologies to enhance my prototypes and projects. My expertise spans app and web-based user interfaces, AR/VR/XR, improving user experiences, microcontrollers, Node.js cloud servers, AWS cloud integration, and innovative storytelling methodologies. Additionally, I have explored physical prototyping tools, such as using cardboard for occlusion surfaces, to improve augmented and virtual reality experiences and spark creative solutions. I am particularly passionate about photogrammetry and 3D model generation, utilizing advanced techniques like Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) and Gaussian splatting to create high-quality, immersive assets from photos and videos.

Collaboration and user-centered design are at the core of my process. I engage with stakeholders and end users to fully understand their goals and challenges, transforming their feedback into personas, journey maps, and user flows that outline an optimal path to success. By focusing on the user, I not only create intuitive and impactful experiences but also uncover overlooked opportunities for improvement, ensuring the final design delivers maximum value.
