Quin Etnyre, a 13-year-old tech expert, teaches graduate students at MIT all about Arduino.

We first saw the news on BBC.

Etnyre is also the CEO at Qtechknow, a startup that sells starter kits for Arduino, an open source electronic platform.

The 13-year-old has created numerous projects, but one especially notable one is the FuzzBot.

The FuzzBot is an Arduino-based robot platform. Etnyre programmed the FuzzBot to detect walls, hands, and has a swiffer duster attached to the back for cleaning.

But when he's not running his company, Entyre teaches an Arduino class at MIT. Some say he's one of MIT's most in-demand teachers.
