Dunedin Aurora began in 2015 as capstone project when we (Chris Campbell and Vaughn Malkin) were completing our Bachelor of Information Technology degree at Otago Polytechnic. We had the good fortune of meeting Dr Ian Griffin (Director of Otago Museum) who agreed to be our client – he’d just bought magnetic sensors (magnetometers) and he wanted them hooked up to the internet and watch for space weather that would cause an aurora.
