I've lived in Raleigh, NC my whole life. Ever since I was very young I've been fascinated with computers and other logic circuits. I have especially been interested in the connection between electric circuits and physical systems (such as motors, levers, etc.). I really enjoy robotics because it brings all of these interests together in a fun and challenging manner.
 
Jim Simpson
Senior Technical Advisor
Major:Electrical and Computer EngineeringStatus:Graduate
Interests:PCB Layout, Embedded SystemsMember Since:2004
Rank:
I graduated with my Bachelors in Electrical Engineering in Spring 2006 and am planning on graduating with my Masters in Spring 2007 here from NC State. I fell for the microcontroller when I first worked with one in an Embedded Systems class and considered myself a digital guy since then. Well, until I started doing research and started falling in love with analog, that is. So today I work with both and realize that the best designs come out a combination of the best techniques in both. I have been with the club since its inception in Fall 2004.

I was born and raised in Raleigh, NC. NC State was the only college I applied to. I've been in love with robots since I was a wee child. Frankie knew this and approached me about starting an underwater robotics club. I jumped at the chance and the URC was born. I run GoRobotics.net and play the mandolin.
