What is Arduino

®

 

Arduino

®

 is an open-source prototyping platform based in easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino

®

 boards 

are able to read inputs – light-on sensor, a finger on a button or a Twitter message – and turn it into an output 
– activating of a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. 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 on Wiring) and the Arduino

®

 software IDE (based on Processing).
