Arduino

Recently, due to the need of my lab, we bought an instrument called basic stamp. It's amazing and easy even though I have never received any education about microcontroller. Although the program of basic stamp is free to download to use, it is not completely for linux system. As you can see in my blog, I began to use linux system recently.

So, I tried to find some key words such as basic stamp and C on google, and I found this page named Arduino, the Basic Stamp killer. In this page, it compares Arduino with Basic stamp. The best advantage of Arduino is that not only it is much cheaper than Basic stamp but also is cross platform which means that it can be programmed by C. I also found that there is a website called Arduino 樂園 written in my native language which contains lots of information about Arduino.

If I have a chance, I really feel like buying this to play.
