It's intended for artists, -designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive -objects or environments. +The open-source Arduino Software (IDE) makes it easy to write code and upload +it to the board. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The environment +is written in Java and based on Processing and other open-source software. +This software can be used with any Arduino board. -Arduino can sense the environment by receiving input from a variety of -sensors and can affect its surroundings by controlling lights, motors, -and other actuators. The microcontroller on the board is programmed -using the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring) and the Arduino -development environment (based on Processing). Arduino projects can be -stand-alone or they can communicate with software on running on a -computer (e.g. Flash, Processing, MaxMSP). - -The open-source Arduino environment makes it easy to write code and -upload it to the i/o board. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The -environment is written in Java and based on Processing, avr-gcc, and -other open source software. +NOTE: This script repackages binary release provided by the upstream. |
