Hello everyone. My name is Fred Hunt. I am a Registered Professional Mechanical Engineer in California. My professional career has focused on mechanical and fluid handling product design and development.
When it comes to electronics, I am a neophyte. Most of my career, I have had electrical engineering support to handle the electrical side of projects. I have picked up some rudimentary electrical knowledge, but no where near what I would need to handle the electrical side of many product designs.
I retired in January 2020. To keep my mind sharp, I decided to pursue some independent product design and development projects. If nothing else, it gives me a chance to have good learning experiences. One of those experiences is attempting to learn how to program and use microcontrollers and microcomputers. I discovered the Dronebot Workshop while following those attempts. I find Bill to be a very good teacher, so I asked to join the forum. I may not be able to contribute much, but I think that I can learn a lot.
I look forward to interacting with the website and the forum.
I thank Bill for hosting this site.
Fred
