What is Arduino®
Arduino ® is an open-source prototyping platform based on 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). Additional shields/modules/components are required for reading a twitter
message or publishing online. Surf to
www.arduino.cc for more information.
Product Overview
The WPI300 is a simple keypad for entering user data into your project. Together with a
library, it will allow your Arduino
® to read a matrix type keypad.
This keypad features 12 buttons and is made of a thin, flexible membrane material with an
adhesive backing so you can attach it to nearly anything.
