Key benefits of using the Arduino Starter Kit

Inexpensive

The Arduino Starter Kit is cheaper than other microcontroller platforms. If your budget is relatively small, you should consider purchasing an Arduino module that can be assembled by hand.

Cross-platform

Another advantage of the Arduino Starter Kit is that they are compatible with different interfaces. They can run on Linux, Macintosh OSX, or Windows operating systems. This is an advantage because most microcontroller systems can only be used with Windows.

The simple, clear programming environment

If you are looking for a microcontroller system for novice programmers, the Arduino Starter Kit is your best choice. It is user-friendly but flexible enough for advanced programmers. Teachers will be pleased to know that the Arduino Starter Kit is based on a processing programming environment that makes programming teaching easy.

Open source and extensible software

Another admirable feature of the Arduino Starter Kit is that its software is released as an open-source tool. This means that more advanced programmers can extend it through the C++ library. And, if you want to learn more complex details, you can switch from Arduino to the AVR C programming language, which is the main underlying technology for this starter kit. Alternatively, you can incorporate the AVR-C code directly into the Arduino software.

Open source and extensible hardware

The Arduino platform is based on two major microcontroller systems. These are Atmel's ATMEGA8 and ATMEGA168. Fortunately, the plans for these two modules have been released under public copyright called the Creative Commons License. This allows skilled circuit designers to freely create their own version of the module in order to extend or improve them.
