The Arduino software is easy-to-use for beginners\, yet flexible e nough for advanced users. It runs on Mac\, Windows\, and Linux.

Designers and architects build interactive prototypes\, musicians a nd artists use it for installations and to experiment with new musical ins truments. Makers\, of course\, use it to build many of the projects exhibi ted at the Maker Faire\, for example. Arduino is a key tool to learn new t hings. Anyone - children\, hobbyists\, artists\, programmers - can start t inkering just following the step by step instructions of a kit\, or sharin g ideas online with other members of the Arduino community.\n\nThere are m any other microcontrollers and microcontroller platforms available for phy sical computing. Parallax Basic Stamp\, Netmedia's BX-24\, Phidgets\, MIT' s Handyboard\, and many others offer similar functionality. All of these t ools take the messy details of microcontroller programming and wrap it up in an easy-to-use package. Arduino also simplifies the process of working with microcontrollers\, but it offers some advantage for teachers\, studen ts\, and interested amateurs over other systems:\n\n- Inexpensive - Arduin o boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other microcontroller plat forms. The least expensive version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand\, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost less than $50\n- Cross-platform - The Arduino Software (IDE) runs on Windows\, Macintosh O SX\, and Linux operating systems. Most microcontroller systems are limited to Windows.\n- Simple\, clear programming environment - The Arduino Softw are (IDE) is easy-to-use for beginners\, yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage of as well. For teachers\, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming environment\, so students learning to progr am in that environment will be familiar with how the Arduino IDE works.\n- Open source and extensible software - The Arduino software is published a s open source tools\, available for extension by experienced programmers. The language can be expanded through C++ libraries\, and people wanting to understand the technical details can make the leap from Arduino to the AV R C programming language on which it's based. Similarly\, you can add AVR- C code directly into your Arduino programs if you want to.\n- Open source and extensible hardware - The plans of the Arduino boards are published un der a Creative Commons license\, so experienced circuit designers can make their own version of the module\, extending it and improving it. Even rel atively inexperienced users can build the [breadboard version of the modul e](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Standalone) in order to understand how i t works and save money.\n\nIEEE Member: 500\nNon IEEE Student Member: 750\ nOthers: 1000\n\nCo-sponsored by: STB18301 - PSCMR College of Engineering and Technology\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr.M.R.Rao\, Mr.S.Pradeep Kumar\n\nAgenda: \ nIEEE Member: 500\nNon IEEE Student Member: 750\nOthers: 1000\n\nBldg: Dep artment of ECE\, PSCMR College of Engineering and Technology\, 7-3-6/1\, R aghavareddy Street\, Vijayawada\, Andhra Pradesh\, India\, 520001 LOCATION:Bldg: Department of ECE\, PSCMR College of Engineering and Technol ogy\, 7-3-6/1\, Raghavareddy Street\, Vijayawada\, Andhra Pradesh\, India\ , 520001 ORGANIZER:profmrrao@gmail.com SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:An IEEE National levevl Workshop on Arduino and Its Applications URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176682 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><h3>Why Arduino?</h3>\n<p>Thanks to its simpl e and accessible user experience\, Arduino has been used in thousands of d ifferent projects and applications.
