Arduino Tutorials and Projects

Arduinos are small, single board computers that allow you to easily, and cheaply, connect real world electronics to a microprocessor.

They are based around ATmega microcontrollers which are full computer systems on a single integrated circuit. You can control devices such as LED’s, motors, servos, etc. and monitor switches, voltages, and other sensors, all using one of a range of compatible boards.

All the development software is free, and boards can be bought for well under £10. If you’re not sure if this sort of thing is for you, try it out for free using an online Arduino and electronics simulator – check out the getting started video for full details.

So take your making skills to the next level and click on a tutorial below.
