Arduino projects, modules, sensors and components
Arduino is an open-source hardware and software company, as well as a
project and user community, that designs and manufactures
single-board microcontrollers and microcontroller kits for
building digital devices. Arduino boards are available
in preassembled form or as do-it-yourself (DIY) kits.
Arduino board designs use a variety of microprocessors
and controllers. The boards are equipped with sets of digital
and analog input/output (I/O) pins that may be interfaced to
various expansion boards ('shields') breakout boards (pre-assembled electronic
comonents) or prototyping breadboards and other circuits.
In this repo, the focus is on developing environ-sensing
electronic devices using Arduino. In particular spectral analysis projects.
The repo is thus divided in the following main categories:
Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment)
- IDE (Integrated Development Environment), inlcuding the Arduino C++ dialect and Micropython/Circuitpython
- Projects (sketch and wiring tuorials for various modules)
- Modules (integrated electronic components, usually directly useful for Arduino wiring and sketching)
- Sensor (environmental senors, usually available as modules)
- Components (Other types of electronic components)
- Spectrometers
- Design (Designing issues)
- Spectrolum (complete spectrometers and ancillary sensors and components)
- Blog (information that does not fit the above)
