What is a microcontroller?
Micro controller is a pretty small computer that only counts with one integrated circuit. Each circuit has memory and a processor for information that come out or in to the computer.
What is an arduino?
It is a hardware that counts with what we already talked about, micro controller designed to use the electronic in basic projects. Arduino was created as an answer to how students could create electronics faster.
Who invented Arduino?
In the year 2005 in Italy, more precisely in he city of Ivrea the first Arduino was used.The first time that this was thought was by the colombian student of technology Hernando Barragan with his thesis ¨Arduino the revolution of open hardware¨. The designer and the inventor of this project are Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, Tom Igoe, Gianluca Martino, and David Mellis (As project this were the designers but as company the only one that did not contributed was Gialuca).
Currenty Massimo is the CEO of the company.
What is a led?
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. This is a device that conducts energy in order to emit light from different colors depending from the bulb. This bulb is also a low consuming bulb that works in many ways and it is commonly used in Arduino.
What is s4a?
Is the program (software) that let the developer of a project with Arduino manage it. It also let you manage sensors, the energy conduction, etc. It also let you record and preview any project.
A project with Arduino. (Arduino oled smart watch)
With the arduino smart watch it is easier and cheaper to have your own remote helper in your wrist. This smart watch works with a micro controller with android system on it that you can link with your phone as a normal Apple watch or Samsung gear.
