Our People

Bart Schroder is our founder, chief designer, and question answerer. Our design team also get to answer questions from time to time - just to keep us all on our toes!

Bart has been in the industry a fair time, designing industrial control systems, variable speed drives, and laser based defence training gear.
He's also had stints at managing large bunches of unruly engineers and navigating through ISO9001 compliance - the perfect driver for starting Cleverscope!

Ira Hopkinson looks after manufacturing, calibration and shipping as well as various software projects.

Ira has been in the electronics industry since 1992 starting in household electronic appliance design and then moved to industrial vehicle and race telemetry systems.

Roger Carter is responsible for sales and marketing, sending out emails, maintaining the website and liasing with distributors. He is also the number two answerer of questions in the forum. He started as a technician and then workshop manager for telecommunications equipment supplier Pye before going out on his own, designing, building and servicing audio and radio systems.

When not busy cleverscoping he is a keen sailer, skier and diver. However, there is not a lot of time for that!
