Although I think it is a very useful and great work, I also believe - but could be wrong - that there is a serious concurrency issue with latest modification "Update Arduino library for less CPU consumption".
This change has introduced a thread that initiates a timed event that is called in every 30ms to read the serial port, a much better approach than the original code. The problem is however, that the timer will tick and initiate a new call disregarding whether the execution of the previous call has finished or not. This results is multiple, simultaneously running instances of InputProcessor.InputProcess() method.
In my view, InputProcessor.InputProcess() should be enclosed in a Monitor.TryEnter(_serialPort) and Monitor.Exit(_serialPort) try-finally clause to prevent parallel execution.

Hi Kelvin,
Yes, there are a few other modifications what I already pushed to my fork. Only these are not tested so currently I am not creating a pull request.
Kind Regards, Laszlo
