Introduction to Arduino

Arduino has been widely used in many educational programs around the world, especially by designers and artists who want to easily create prototypes without needing to deeply understand the technical details behind the hardware platform.

Arduino is designed specifically for non-technical users, requiring no prior experience in software or hardware. Arduino consists of two parts: microcontroller hardware and software development environment. Its purpose is to create projects that perceive and control the physical world.

The software is free and can be downloaded from the official Arduino website.

Arduino’s software is called the Integrated Development Environment (IDE), used for programming, compiling, and uploading programs to the Arduino controller via USB.

Arduino can perceive the environment through various sensors and change or influence the environment by controlling lights, motors, and other devices.

The Arduino development board is where your written code is executed. It can only control and respond to electrical signals. It needs to be connected to some components to interact with the external environment.

These components can be sensors, which convert certain characteristics of the physical world into electrical signals so that the board can perceive them; or actuators, which receive power from the board and convert it into actions that change the physical world.

There are many types of sensors, such as switches, accelerometers, ultrasonic distance sensors…

There are many types of actuators, such as LED lights, speakers, motors, and displays…

There are many models of Arduino, such as:

Arduino Uno

Arduino Mega 2560
