Introduction to the Arduino

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards 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. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board.


What is a microcontroller?

microcontroller (MCU for microcontroller unit) is a small computer on a single metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) integrated circuit chip. In modern terminology, it is similar to, but less sophisticated than, a system on a chip (SoC); an SoC may include a microcontroller as one of its components. A micro-controller contains one or more CPUs (processor cores) along with memory and programmable input/output peripherals



In the computers and other devices we are using micro processors.
There are many differences between micro processors and micro controllers.



When talking about the Arduino Micro controller takes a major place. Because Arduino boards are consists of Atmel micro controllers.(Atmel Chips)



From this Arduino boards there are many new creations that can be build. It is an easy task to build robots using Arduino. Because the programming as well electronics is easy rather than using other embedded systems.
There are many Arduino Boards which we can work.


Arduino Uno
Arduino Nano
Arduino Mega
Are some examples for Arduino boards.

There are many creations that we can build from this boards with the help of sensors and shields.

Arduino 3D printer


Arduino Obstacle Avoiding Robot

 Arduino Line Follower


Arduino CNC plotter




Through this web site we are going to raise your Arduino knowledge from basic level to the advanced level. So stay with us to gather knowledge.
See you in the next post.....

Evolution of programming languages

Evolution of programming Languages        All programming languages developed  from the inception can be classified  into four main classes .     1.First Generation programming  languages (Machine languages )     2. Second  Generation  programming  languages (Assembly languages)     3.Third Generation programming  languages (High level languages)     4.Fourth  Generation  programming  languages (Artificial languages )       One of the key features apparent  in the evolution of the programming  languages is that the programming languages have become easily understandable and usable over the years . 1)First Generation programming languages                                All machine  languages fall into this category. Common features :-...

Python Basic Introduction

PYTHON ❃Installation of python on computer :-                you can download  & install python exe file from python.org website.Link is given below.            -- --- download python ---- ------------------------        ➧  python is easy to learn ,powerful programming language.It has efficient high-level data structures and simple but effective approach to object oriented programming.python's elegant syntax and dynamic typing ,together with it's interpreted nature,make it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many platforms.        ➧ The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are freely available in source or binary form for all major platforms (windows,linux,mac os....... ) from python web site ,and may be freely distributed.The same site also contains distributions of and pointers...
