Tianhong Pan obtained his Ph.D. degree in April, 2007 from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China. He then worked for 1.5 years at National Tsinghua University, Taiwan China since 2009, and 3.5 years at University of Alberta, Edmonton Canada since 2011 as a postdoctoral fellow, where gained valuable industrial experience in semiconductor manufacturing processes and petrochemical industry. Now, He has been a professor in School of Electrical and Information Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, China. As the core member of innovative research & education organization of Asia, he organized all Summer Program of Innovative Engineering Design since 2013 and got a good experience in “Embedded System Design using Arduino”. In addition to teaching Arduino, he enjoys automating everyday tasks, blinking LEDs, designing and etching PCBs, and lots of random things in between. Much of his time has been spent researching, building, and testing various controllers to make his device work automatically. Additionally, he published several articles in refereed journals and international conferences.

Yi Zhu received the Ph.D. degree in communication and information system from Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing, China, in 2016. He is currently an Associate Professor of School of Computer Science and Communication Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, China. Since 2010, he began to have interest in Innovative Engineering Education and Maker Training. As the core member of innovative research & education organization of Asia, he attended all Summer Program of Innovative Engineering Design and Creative Engineering Design Competition since 2013. In 2014 & 2015, he visited Yamaguchi University of Japan as visiting lecturer to teach “Embedded System”. These abroad education activities provided great valuable experiences for forming his education idea of maker training. Through teaching practice, he proposed an effective maker training mode based on “Arduino/Raspberry Pi/Android/Robot” in the end of 2015. For his contribution in maker education, he received the first prize of Teaching Achievement Award by Jiangsu University and the first prize of National Engineering Training by Ministry of Education institution of Engineering Training Guidance Committee respectively in 2016.
