Arduino – Programming

The programming in arduino in done through Embedded C. For beginners Embedded C is just like standard C except that it add a few functions to make it controller/board specific. Below are some functions  of Embedded C for arduino.I suggest you guys to learn standard c before working on embedded c.
  • Structures
    • setup() –This function is used to initialize initialize variables, pin modes, start using libraries, etc. The setup function will only run once, after each powerup or reset of the Arduino board.

BeagleBone tutorial

BeagleBone is a  low cost, credit card sized, single board computer with a Sitara ARM Cortex-A8 processor running at 720 MHz, 256 MB of RAM, two 46-pin expansion connectors, on-chip Ethernet, a microSD slot, and a USB host port developed by Texas Instruments and as it was originally designed for hobbyist and enthusiasts, it is an open source board. It was announced  in October 2011 at a price of 89$.An updated version of BeagleBone named BeagleBone Black was lauched with an  increases in RAM to 512 MB, the processor clock to 1 GHz, and it adds HDMI and 2 GB of eMMC flash memory. Like Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone also runs on linux but we can also install Android 4.0 as well.For more info visit http://learningembedded.com/beaglebone/

Raspberry Pi – Configuration

After installation when starting your raspberry pi for the first time you need to configure the system. Configuring can be done through both ways(HDMI and PuTTy).Lets us look at steps for configuring Raspberry Pi. For the steps to configure Raspbian visit

Arduino – Installation

The Programming in case of Arduino is done on a software called Arduino IDE where IDE stands for Intregated Development Enviroment which is used controlled the hardware according to the requirements of the user.

Steps for Setting up  Arduino 


Arduino Tutorial

Arduino is an open-source computer hardware and software company that designs and manufactures boards for building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control the physical world.The goal of making this board was to provide an inexpensive and easy way for hobbyists, students, and professionals to create devices that interact with their environment .The board was first introduced in the year 2005. It all began as a project for students at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Ivrea,Italy. Arduino mostly uses 8-bit Atmel AVR microcontrollers or 32-bit Atmel ARM processors.For more details visit http://learningembedded.com/arduino/

Raspberry Pi – Installation



The first thing to do with your Raspberry Pi is setup but before setting up you will need a few things apart from your Raspberry Pi for connecting your Raspberry Pi .Below is the list of things needed.
  • Micro USB lead
  • USB power adapter
  • HDMI lead :Type A to Type A
  • HDMI display
  • SD card (minimum 4 gb recommended)
  • SD card reader
  • USB keyboard and mouse

The OS used in Raspberry Pi is a linux distribution. For the complete tutorial on how to install an OS on Raspberry Pi visit

Raspberry Pi Programming

Programming of Raspberry Pi can be done in many languages but the most commonly used is python script.Python is an easy to learn, powerful programming language. It has efficient high-level data structures and a simple but effective approach to object-oriented programming. Python’s elegant syntax and dynamic typing, together with its interpreted nature, make it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many areas on most platforms. Python is pre-installed in Raspbian. The extension for a python script is .py and the text editor used is nano text editor which is also pre-installed.

Linux commands for Raspberry Pi

one of the OS used in Raspberry Pi is Raspbian OS.Since Raspbian OS is a linux distribution  so when working in the command line,it is very important to know the different commands.For using the different commands you much open the terminal and type in the commands listed below.The default username is pi and the default password is raspberrry.The command are list below can be studied in detail on this link given below

Raspberry Pi tutorial

Raspberry pi is a credit card sized computer that is capable of almost everything that a normal desktop computer can perform. It can be easily plugged into your TV and a keyboard .The board was developed by Raspberry Pi Foundation in the year 2012.The board uses ARM 11 processor and it also has an onboard ram, HDMI port for video output, MIPI camera interface for video input, 3.5mm audio jack for audio output, USB ports for peripheral I/O, Ethernet port for network and for ROM its uses external SD card. The board supports HD video support upto 1080p.The operating system used in Raspberry pi is Linux based. The programming languages used in it are python, c, c++, java, perl and ruby.For more details visit
