Jeremy Blum最近在康奈尔大学取得了电气和计算机工程专业的硕士学位，他之前还在同一领域取得了学士学位。在康奈尔大学，他通过由他发起并领导的康奈尔大学可持续设计组织（Cornell University Sustainable Design）监督了国内外几座生态建筑的设计和施工，这是一个被国家承认的可持续设计组织，该组织曾受到美国和世界绿色建筑委员会（U.S. and World Green Building Councils）CEO的特别称赞。同样，Jeremy也将他的激情付诸电气工程领域，设计了太阳能家庭能源监控系统、革命性的光导纤维LED照明系统以及追踪太阳的智能太阳能面板。他还负责协助启动了一个首创的创业者协同工作空间，每年致力于许多学生创业项目（也包括一些他自己的创意）的合作开发。

Jeremy还设计了广受赞誉的义肢控制方法、手势识别系统以及楼宇自动化系统等许多项目。他设计了MakerBot Replicator 3D打印机（被世界各国的人们使用，包括像NASA这样知名组织）的电子系统，以及MakerBot Digitizer 3D扫描仪的原型电子系统和固件。作为知名组织Creative Machines Lab的研究员，他致力于创作能够组装它们自己的机器人、自学习四足机器人以及重新定义个人制造的3D打印机。他将这项研究呈送给了同行审阅的期刊和远在印度的学术会议。

Jeremy制作的YouTube视频已经将数百万人带入了工程学的大门，是互联网上最流行的Arduino入门教程。他曾开发了入选探索频道（Discovery Channel）的开源硬件项目和入门教程，并因此被国际上的开源社区和“创客”社区所熟知，赢得了一些奖项和黑客马拉松（hack-a-thons）。Jeremy入选了美国电气和电子工程师学会（American Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers）的2012工程学新面孔（2012 New Face of Engineering）榜单。

Learn to easily build gadgets, gizmos, robots, and more using Arduino Written by Arduino expert Jeremy Blum, this unique book uses the popular Arduino microcontroller platform as an instrument to teach you about topics in electrical engineering, programming, and human-computer interaction. Whether you're a budding hobbyist or an engineer, you'll benefit from the perfectly paced lessons that walk you through useful, artistic, and educational exercises that gradually get more advanced. In addition to specific projects, the book shares best practices in programming and design that you can apply to your own projects. Code snippets and schematics will serve as a useful reference for future projects even after you've mastered all the topics in the book. Includes a number of projects that utilize different capabilities of the Arduino, while interfacing with external hardware Features chapters that build upon each other, tying in concepts from previous chapters to illustrate new ones Includes aspects that are accompanied by video tutorials and other multimedia content Covers electrical engineering and programming concepts, interfacing with the world through analog and digital sensors, communicating with a computer and other devices, and internet connectivity Explains how to combine smaller topics into more complex projects Shares downloadable materials and source code for everything covered in the book Exploring Arduino takes you on an adventure and provides you with exclusive access to materials not found anywhere else!
