The Arduino Due has a 32-bit ARM core (the Uno is 8-bit), an 84 Mhz CPU clock, 96 KB of SRAM, and more USB ports than the Uno. In short, it's a much more powerful microcontroller that can handle a ...

The best/worst Arduino creation was an open-source Homeland Security non-lethal weapon project: “ THE BEDAZZLER: A Do-it-yourself Handheld LED-Incapacitator”.

The same goes for the Arduino microcontroller. Once I started diving deeper into the electronics hobby and discovered the Arduino, all sorts of projects started developing in my head.

Debugging microcontroller projects can be a huge time saver when your code starts running on real hardware, but often takes some hacking to get working.
