Geoff Graham<\/a><\/h3>\n

Geoff creates high quality open source designs that are very well documented and include excellent discussion of the design theory.<\/p>\n

He is pioneering open source projects that are published in commercial electronics hobby magazines, an industry which has a long tradition of restricting project copyright, but allowing “build your own”.<\/p>\n

He is also an early leader in PIC32 projects with the comprehensive Maximite<\/a> and the Mini-Maximite<\/a> projects, which have very active community support (1<\/a>, 2<\/a>) to further develop the concepts. Another highly useful project is the Intelligent Fan Controller<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Andrew (bunnie) Huang<\/a><\/h3>\n

Bunnie Huang has been long time inspiration for sharing insights into “real world” design and manufacturing processes in general, as well as a series of products that are currently in production. His posts are insightful and also include diverse topics from leading edge biology to \u2018Ponderings – The ravings and rantings of a madman\u2019 of ” and a series of articles on Made in China<\/a>. He also runs a monthly competition to Name that Ware<\/a> – ie identify some partly camouflaged hardware.<\/p>\n

Bunnie was also one of the five contributors to this astounding background piece for a commercial research organisation Innovation spaces of the future: research notes on China’s shanzhai meeting the Makers<\/a>. This really is a must read for several major reasons!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The first post in this series<\/a> also includes a footer with suggestions to help you start creating your own inspiration and turning that into reality and the Wiki<\/a> is starting to build an array of useful resources to further help.<\/p>\n
