Arduino - open source electronics platform

Posted on April 2nd, 2008

Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.

The latest versions Arduino are based on the Atmel AVR microcontroller, and are programmed over USB.
You can buy them or build your own, since the hardware specs are released under a Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 2.5 license and are made available on the Arduino Web site.

In the near future I will be posting about some cool projects that use the Arduino.
