Arduino
What is it ?
Is an open source programmable circuit board that can be integrated into a
wide variety of makerspace projects both simple and complex.
This board contains a microcontroller is able to be programmed to sense and control objects in the physical world. Arduino is able to interact
with a large array of outputs such as LEDs, motors and displays.

Who invented Arduino?
Massimo Banzi helped invent the Arduino. Massimo Banziwith David Mellis, another IDII student, and David Cuartielles, added support for the cheaper ATmega8 microcontroller to Wiring. But instead of continuing the work on Wiring, they forked the project and renamed it Arduino.
The Arduino hardware and software was designed for artists, designers, hobbyists, hackers, newbies, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.
Arduino software is free, the hardware boards are pretty cheap, and both the software and hardware are easy to learn has led to a large community of users who have contributed code and released instructions for a huge variety of Arduino-based projects.

Wiring was invented by Hernando barraganin 2003 and after a
group of studets were invented Arduino less expencive than wiring.

What is a breadboard?
Arduino is a solderless "breadboard" or "protoboard". This device allows you to prototype your Arduino project without having to permanently solder the circuit together. Using a breadboard allows you to create temporary prototypes and experiment with different circuit designs
Sensors
JoyStick:The JoyStick is a analog sensor that can be used to control your arduino. Analog JoySticks are basically potentiometers, so they return values which can be made visible using the provided code in this step.By clicking the serial monitor you will see the values. Once you move the JoyStick the values will change. This code is also handy if you want to control your Arduino using a JoyStick.
Flame Sensor:These sensors are used for short range fire detection. They can be used for safety or to monitor projects.
Relay:A relay is used to switch high voltage applications using a lower voltage. This is often used in houses as well since it's a safe option to switch on and off high voltages.You apply a small voltage (5V) to one side of the relay and it will switch the other side on or off.
Linear Hall Sensor:This sensor produces a voltage when placed into a magnetic field. The voltage can be used to control your Arduino.
SMD RGB LED:This LED contains light emitting diodes. A red one, a green one and a blue one. Combining those into one LED will give you a RGB LED. You can all different kind of things with this LED.
7 Color Flash LED:This LED automatically switches between 7 colors. The LED has a integrated IC. If you disconnect the LED the colors will reset and the animation will start over.
Mercury Tilt Switch:The Tilt Switch is a mercury tilt switch that allows you to detect the tilt of your object. It provides a digital output.
Temperature Sensor:This temperature sensor outputs a analog signal. The sensor is accurate which makes it useful for precise appliances.
Big Sound Sensor:This sensor can detect sound and outputs both a analog signal as well as a digital signal that can be used to for example create a clap on/clap off light switch. This sensor is very useful with the relay module.
Two Color LED:This LED contains two light emitting diodes. One pin is the GND and the other two are for a red and green LED.By powering both GND and one of the pins you can see one of the colors. You can also power GND and both pins at the same time to mix the color and get a yellow/orange color.
Laser Emitter:This is a laser module that emits a laser light when powered. There is also a signal pin that allows you to make the laser blink for example.
Ball Switch:This sensor contains a small metal ball which will complete a circuit depending on the position in the sensor. Because the sensor is very basic, it can only detect large changes when its tilt, and can not measure the angle of its tilt.
Analog Temperature Sensor:The analog temperature sensor acts as a variable resistor (NTC/PTC). As temperature increases, the sensor will decrease it’s voltage output. Once we can measure the voltage output, we can calibrate the sensor and convert the output in voltage to temperature.
Small Sound Sensor:This sensor can detect sound and outputs both a analog signal as well as a digital signal that can be used to for example create a clap on/clap off light switch. This sensor is very useful with the relay module.
Two Color LED (small):This LED contains two light emitting diodes. One pin is the GND and the other two are for a red and green LED.By powering both GND and one of the pins you can see one of the colors. You can also power GND and both pins at the same time to mix the color and get a yellow/orange color.
Button:This is, ofcourse, a push button. Nothing more, nothing less... It outputs a digital signal. Apart from that there isn't much to say about this module.
IR Receiver:This module can be used with the IR Emitter. You can also use this in combination with a TV remote to control your Arduino.
Avoidance Sensor:This sensor uses a infrared emitter and receiver to check whether there are any obstacles in front of it. This can be useful for a robot.
