About

Arduino is an Italian open-source electronics platform providing microcontroller development boards, the Arduino IDE programming environment, and a vast ecosystem of compatible shields, sensors, and libraries — enabling hobbyists, students, educators, engineers, and professional developers to prototype and build interactive electronic projects and IoT devices without deep embedded systems expertise. Founded in 2005 at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Italy, Arduino built the most widely used prototyping platform in electronics education and maker culture, generating $42-49 million in revenue in 2024 from hardware sales, cloud services, and enterprise IoT solutions through arduino.cc. Qualcomm acquired Arduino in October 2025, integrating it into Qualcomm's IoT ecosystem.
