Arduino Uno and Arduino Mega2560

Arduino is a popular open-source electronics computing platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. A basic Arduino board is quite versatile in its own right and, depending on the model chosen, provides features such as serial communications, analog and digital I/O, USB, or EtherNet.

In practice however, most system designs benefit by adding specialized and general purpose peripheral boards, also called "shields", to enhance and expand the basic functionality. The peripheral boards plug in to mating connectors located on the Arduino in a stack-together fashion. Numerous manufactures support the Arduino standard resulting in readily available off-the-shelf solutions, multiple product sources, and reduced costs.
