VARIA is an official ARDUINO distributor

We’re excited to have the open source electronics platform ARDUINO as an official distributor. As usual, VARIA offers not only the purchase of hardware but also the necessary support for the easy-to-use solutions from Arduino.

Via Arduino

Arduino is an open source electronics platform based on user-friendly hardware and software. Arduino boards can read input – light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message – and convert it to output – activate a motor, turn on an LED, post something online.

You can tell your board what to do by sending a series of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do this, you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring) and the Arduino software (IDE), based on Processing.

Why Arduino

Thanks to its simple and accessible controls, Arduino has been used in thousands of different projects and applications. The Arduino software is easy to use for beginners, yet flexible enough for advanced users.

It runs on Mac, Windows and Linux. Teachers and students use it to build inexpensive scientific instruments, prove chemical and physical principles, or start programming and robotics. Designers and architects build interactive prototypes, musicians and artists use them for installations and to experiment with new musical instruments.

  • Inexpensive
    Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive when compared to other microcontroller platforms. The cheapest version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost less than 45 euros.
  • Cross-platform
    The Arduino software (IDE) can run on Windows, Macintosh OSX, and Linux operating systems. Most microcontroller systems are limited to Windows.
  • Simple, clear programming environment
    The Arduino software (IDE) is easy to use for beginners, but flexible enough for advanced users as well. For teachers, it is based on the Processing programming environment, so that students who learn to program in this environment are familiar with how the Arduino IDE works.
  • Open source and extensible software
    The Arduino software is published as an open source tool and can be expanded by experienced programmers. The language can be expanded using C ++ libraries. If you want to understand the technical details, you can make the jump from Arduino to the AVR C programming language on which it is based. Likewise, you can paste AVR C code directly into your Arduino programs if you want.
  • Open source and expandable hardware
    The plans of the Arduino boards are published under a Creative Commons license. Experienced circuit designers can create their own version of the module, expand it, and improve it.
