Arduino Tutorial (Videos)

Arduino is an open source physical computing platform based on a simple input/output (I/O) board and a development environment that implements the Processing language (www.processing.org). Arduino can be used to develop standalone interactive objects or can be connected to software on your computer (such as Flash, Processing, VVVV, or Max/MSP). The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased pre-assembled; the open source IDE (Integrated Development Environment) can be downloaded for free from www.arduino.cc.
