Arduino-The bestest innovation ever! Besides its uniqueness that its an open Source,it is beyond the imagination power of humans.... The combination of open source and Real world makes the future extremely bright specially for the students like us:) So,get set and explore the wonderful opportunities with this Amazing innovation!

2. Computer-based interactivity used to be
beyond the reach of most artists, designers,
and other electronics amateurs who
wanted to make their work respond to
light, sound and other stimulus by moving,
beeping, tweeting.
THAT ERA!

6. 2 Americans & 3 Italians did the
job...
Then, in 2005, Italian engineer
Massimo Banzi and his team created
the Arduino microcontroller, a small,
cheap programmable computer,
bringing interactive technology to the

7. WHAT OTHERS SAY!
 "Most open-source projects start
from a frustration. Arduino was
born when Banzi's design students
complained about not being able
to find a microcontroller for their
robotic projects." — WIREDItalia

8. WHY ARDUINO??

9. And the most important!
OPEN SOURCE!
- Both hardware and software...
OBVIOUSLY
 “You don’t need anyone’s
permission to create something
great.”

10. Have A Look

11. Typical Arduino Board...

12. Arduino IDE 

13. Arduino Language
 C like syntax, but simplified
 Abstracts the pin naming to numbers
 Trades efficience for ease of use
 Easy to learn, yet powerful
 Lots of example code
 Easy to reuse C-code from other
projects
 Libraries can be written in C++
 Lots of libraries available

14. Different Flavours!!!

15. Real Time
Applications?
Here Are
Some..........

16. BotaniCalls!

17. KickBee!

18. & Google ADK 2012

19. SO,how to become a maker?
Workshops??
Hackerspaces??
Labs??
Electronics groups??
ABSOLUTELY NOT

21. GET A KIT!

22. &
EXPLORE!
Start doing things!

23. A Great Saying!
"The only way to do great
work is to love what you do.
If you haven’t found it yet,
keep looking. Don’t settle"
