Arduino – http://arduino.cc
WHAT IS ARDUINO?Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for anyone making interactive projects.
Why would I be interested?
Because, DATA!Digital I/O Ports (PWM)
Analog Input Ports
What’s in it for Geogeeks?
GPS “Shields” – easy stacking, IO and power supplied via pins, plus SD Card Logging
What can I measure and map?TemperaturePressureLight levelHumiditySmokeCO2MethaneVOCsRadiationet cetera…
Putting it all together…
Easy to code, IDE is supplied, transfers your sketch to the Arduino via USB cable
