Introduction to Arduino

So I bought Arduino (it is microcontroller) from ebay for ~22$, it is not that much. When I received it, one thing came to my mind "It is awesome device". The possibilities of this thing is limitless. For example it is possible to build autonomic car, which can drive in the room without hitting the wall.  

Arduino powered by 9V battery

I love this device, because it is possible to build something without any knowledge about electronics. Ok, you need to know some basics, but not too much. I am software engineer, so at first I was afraid, that is going to be difficult for me with the electronics part, but I was wrong about that one. So watch my first arduino project. It might seem to be complicated, but it is very easy.  


Another thing I love about arduino is the Community. It is outstanding how much bunch of people can do. There are a lot of projects in the internet with the codes and sketches, you just have to follow simple steps. 

Conclusion. It is awesome device, and if you love to develop new things. You should buy it.
