They built the first Arduino using a $100 BASIC Stamp microcontroller. Here is the Arduino team that gives hope to those new generations: From left to right: David Mellis, David Cuartielles, Gianluca Martino, Massimo Banzi, Tom Igoe, flickr In 2003, under the supervision of Hernando Barragán, Massimo Banzi and Casey Reas, he created the Wiring development platform as a master’s thesis project at IDII....

AVR is the name of the family of microcontrollers designed by the Atmel company and introduced to the market in 1996. They designed these microcontrollers with the RISC command set on the modified Harvard architecture. Microcontrollers are 8-Bit and, as an exception, it produced in 32-bit models in a period. It is one of the most widely used microcontrollers in many embedded systems and especially in hobby circuits, and forms the basis of Arduino....
