Abstract
For amateur inventors, the Raspberry PI and the Arduino are a huge resource for designing and building one’s own technology. The Raspberry Pi has become the de facto single board computer (or SBC), and Python has become the de facto language used on the Pi. In other cases, you may actually need a microcontroller to provide either an interface to a computer or to act as a more limited control unit. In these cases, the Arduino, in all its variations, has become the standard. While you will only explore the Arduino and the Raspberry Pi in this chapter, there are several other options available that you may want to check out.
