Arduino

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. It consists of programmable microcontroller boards and an integrated development environment (IDE) for writing and uploading code. It is widely used for building interactive electronic projects, from simple sensors to complex robotics.

Also known as: Arduino Boards, Arduino Microcontroller, Arduino Platform, Arduino IDE, Arduino Uno
