- 1. ARDUINO Arduino refers to an open-source electronics platform or board and the software used to program it. Arduino is designed to make electronics more accessible to artists, designers, hobbyists and ayone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.
- 2. What is a microcontroller? A microcontroller (MCU for microcontroller unit) is a small computer on a single metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) integrated circuit (IC) chip. A microcontroller contains one or more CPUs (processor cores) along with memory and programmable input/output peripherals Arduino Microcontroller ● Open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. ● Are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. What is it used for? Physical Computing projects / research Interactive Installations Rapid Prototyping
