Arduino vs Emerson Electric
Side-by-side comparison of AI visibility scores, market position, and capabilities
Qualcomm-acquired (Oct 2025) open-source IoT microcontroller platform with $42-49M revenue; 30M+ users taught electronics with Arduino IDE and boards competing with Raspberry Pi in the $815M maker ecosystem.
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.
Industrial automation leader transformed by Copeland HVAC divestiture ($14B) and NI test equipment acquisition ($8.2B, 2023); $17.5B FY2024 revenue; 55% AspenTech stake for industrial AI optimization.
About
Emerson Electric is a leading global technology and software company focused on industrial automation, process control, and test and measurement solutions, founded in 1890 in Ferguson, Missouri and now headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, trading on NYSE (EMR). The company generated approximately $17.5 billion in revenues for fiscal year 2024 (ending September 30) under CEO Lal Karsanbhai, who has executed the most dramatic portfolio transformation in Emerson's 130-year history: divesting the InSinkErator and Therm-O-Disc consumer and commercial products businesses, selling a 55% stake in Copeland (HVAC compressors) for $14 billion to create a stand-alone entity, and acquiring National Instruments Corporation (NI) for $8.2 billion in 2023—adding NI's LabVIEW test automation software, PXI modular instruments, and automated test equipment platform to create a differentiated test and measurement capability.
