Arduino

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board.

It uses Hardware and Software to perform tasks and functions.

Some Examples: -

Like turning on Lights at night.

Controlling pumps on tanks.

Environment monitoring.

Automating machines or multiple machines.

There are different versions of Arduino and varies according to the intended use.
