About the Author

Michael McRoberts is the founder of Earthshine Electronics in the UK that specializes in Arduino Starter Kits and other project components. He is actively involved in electronics and Arduino projects since discovering the Arduino about three years ago. One of his hobbies is astronomy and specifically astrophotography, and it was during researching how to hook up temperature sensors to a PC (to make a Cloud Detector) that he discovered the Arduino.

Since then he has worked on numerous projects for self amusement and he is currently involved in creating a flight computer, using an Arduino programmed Atmega328 chip to control the telemetry and camera control systems on a High Altitude Balloon project. He is an active member of the Arduino forums and takes pleasure in using his experience and knowledge to help beginners learn the Arduino.
