Arduino microcontrollers have added Python to the range of compatible programming languages. Others can be used, and not just Arduino's own IDE app.

In my last article, Python’s role in developing real-time embedded systems, I discussed some ways Python can be used in embedded development. One question that might have come to a readers’ mind is ...

I build robots that move, blink, and sometimes even creep you out. From animatronics to 3D printing experiments, I fuse mechanics, electronics, and creativity to bring ideas to life. Follow to see ...

University of Cambridge theoretical physicist Damien George has built a tiny microcontroller that is more powerful than Arduino and far simpler than the Raspberry Pi. Just funded on Kickstarter ...

While the Arduino family of boards connect to your computer using a USB virtual serial port, the ATmega ones have an actual serial connection on-board.

Arduino enthusiasts or those that would like to use the Python programming language with an Arduino-based development board, may be interested in a new piece of hardware which has been created by ...

His code listens for serial commands and manipulates the motors accordingly. He wrote a Python script using pyserial which talks to the Arduino.

The Arduino team has also created a new Arduino Lab for MicroPython, offering coders and makes a simple, cross-platform IDE for MicroPython that supports any board with a serial REPL interface so ...

Become savvy in Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Python 3, and more developer's tools from the comfort of your home with The All-In-One Raspberry Pi & Arduino Developer Bundle.

Just to flag this one, though you may have noticed it already: Arduino support for MicroPython - an optimised version of the language that runs on MCUs - is now available as a downloadable editor.
