Introduction to the Arduino platform

The Arduino platform is a hardware board that offers a hardware-software integrated creative device development platform. The Arduino boards can be interfaced with openly available peripheral devices and custom programs can be written and loaded (embedded) into the Arduino development board:

These programs in turn control and interact with various peripheral components attached with the Arduino board. Thus by using the Arduino development boards; device designers and engineers can quickly create a running prototype of their imaginations. The best part is that the Arduino hardware and software eco-system is open source.

There are many different types of Arduino boards available in the market. Depending upon the processor speed, number of general purpose input/output pins and different power...
