The Geek Revolution Will Be Powered By Arduino

I think the biggest problem working in the creative industry is that a great idea can come in seconds but making it come to life can prove to be an arduous and time consuming task. Life becomes even harder when we start talking about digital ideas and executions. What would seem to be an easy solution might have you searching the web for hours just for a line of code or even worse, having to write code yourself. But what about those with very limited coding experience? Well that’s where Arduino comes in.

Here’s their elevator pitch “Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments”

The beauty of Arduino is that every thing is open-sourced. Their website has hundreds of examples of project that have been created using their Arduino that range from Feeding your dog via Twitter to a Christmas tree that lights up when you get a new email.

We are really excited about the possibilities that Arduino creates and who knows, maybe your dog just might be fed via Foursquare Checkin

Arduino boards can be purchased on their website or at various electronic stores (go to their website to view the list)

So what are you waiting for, go create something cool. We know we will.
