About Arduino

What is Arduino?

Arduino is an open source platform for building electronic gadgets. It consists of a microcontroller which can be programmed by computer, laptops or smart phones.
It has now become a popular platform among the people for building DIY stuffs with an affordable price. Unlike other programmable boards, Arduino doesn’t need a separate piece of hardware in order to load new code into it , anyone can simply use a USB cable for programming it. The software (called arduino IDE) used to program the arduino is a simplified version of C++.


What does Arduino do?

Arduino is designed in such a way anyone who is interested for creating interacting object and gadgets can easily do that. It can easily interact with LED’s, motors, camera, speakers even with your TVs and Smartphone’s makes it a flexible device. For every DIY gadget, arduino can be the brain behind it.    



History:-

This arduino project started in 2003 at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Italy. This project aimed for providing low-cost way to create devices that can interact with the environment by using sensors.
The name “arduino” came from a bar in Ivrea where some founders used to meet there.
