WHAT IS ARDUINO?
Arduino is an open-source prototyping platform based on easy-to-use
hardware and software.
You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the
microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the
Arduino programming language (based onWiring), and
the Arduino Software (IDE) , based onProcessing.
ADVANTAGES OF ARDUINO
Inexpensive- Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other microcontroller platforms. The least expensive
version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost less than $50
Cross-platform- The Arduino Software (IDE) runs on Windows, Macintosh OSX, and Linux operating systems. Most
microcontroller systems are limited to Windows.
Simple, clear programming environment- The Arduino Software (IDE) is easy-to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for
advanced users to take advantage of as well. For teachers, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming
environment, so students learning to program in that environment will be familiar with how the Arduino IDE works.
Open source and extensible software- The Arduino software is published as open source tools, available for extension by
experienced programmers. The language can be expanded through C++ libraries, and people wanting to understand the
technical details can make the leap from Arduino to the AVR C programming language on which it's based. Similarly, you can
add AVR-C code directly into your Arduino programs if you want to.
Open source and extensible hardware- The plans of the Arduino boards are published under a Creative Commons license, so
experienced circuit designers can make their own version of the module, extending it and improving it. Even relatively
inexperienced users can build thebreadboard version of the modulein order to understand how it works and save money.
