Jeremy Blum最近在康奈爾大學取得瞭電氣和計算機工程專業的碩士學位，他之前還在同一領域取得瞭學士學位。在康奈爾大學，他通過由他發起並領導的康奈爾大學可持續設計組織（Cornell University Sustainable Design）監督瞭國內外幾座生態建築的設計和施工，這是一個被國傢承認的可持續設計組織，該組織曾受到美國和世界綠色建築委員會（U.S. and World Green Building Councils）CEO的特彆稱贊。同樣，Jeremy也將他的激情付諸電氣工程領域，設計瞭太陽能傢庭能源監控係統、革命性的光導縴維LED照明係統以及追蹤太陽的智能太陽能麵闆。他還負責協助啓動瞭一個首創的創業者協同工作空間，每年緻力於許多學生創業項目（也包括一些他自己的創意）的閤作開發。

Jeremy還設計瞭廣受贊譽的義肢控製方法、手勢識彆係統以及樓宇自動化係統等許多項目。他設計瞭MakerBot Replicator 3D打印機（被世界各國的人們使用，包括像NASA這樣知名組織）的電子係統，以及MakerBot Digitizer 3D掃描儀的原型電子係統和固件。作為知名組織Creative Machines Lab的研究員，他緻力於創作能夠組裝它們自己的機器人、自學習四足機器人以及重新定義個人製造的3D打印機。他將這項研究呈送給瞭同行審閱的期刊和遠在印度的學術會議。

Jeremy製作的YouTube視頻已經將數百萬人帶入瞭工程學的大門，是互聯網上最流行的Arduino入門教程。他曾開發瞭入選探索頻道（Discovery Channel）的開源硬件項目和入門教程，並因此被國際上的開源社區和“創客”社區所熟知，贏得瞭一些奬項和黑客馬拉鬆（hack-a-thons）。Jeremy入選瞭美國電氣和電子工程師學會（American Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers）的2012工程學新麵孔（2012 New Face of Engineering）榜單。

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!
