Who are Arduino’s competitors? Arduino has inspired a huge number of spin-off boards, due to its open design, which caters to a wide range of electronics hobbyists. When is Arduino happening?

And that’s smart, only the rest of the consumer electronics industry isn’t claiming to be Open Source Hardware while the reference design is protected by an NDA.

Thanks to the open-source community aspects of Arduino, makers and developers are sharing their code, libraries, and drivers for all to use.

Four engineers from Spark have pooled their skills and resources to create a new open source smart thermostat based on Arduino using $70 of components.

Senior Electron has unveiled a new open source Arduino smartwatch they have created which is equipped with an OLED display and equipped with a ...

Arduino: this hardware/software combo allows you to program chips and test them on the fly—a real advantage of open hardware. One of the wacky creations possible with Arduino, this spider-like robot ...

So just like with open source software, people can and do make derivatives of Arduino boards or entirely new products powered by Arduino technology. Why is openness important in hardware?

Distributors love maker Arduino projects and so do I. But this is something special – a smart watch built from Arduino parts. According to developer in Brazil, who calls himself “benhur.goncalves” on ...

The Arduino talks to a USB card reader using a USB host shield. Then it communicates with the PLC using an RS232 link and the DF1 protocol that most Allen Bradley PLCs understand.
