The Arduino has been around for a while now, and it has proven itself as a great prototyping tool. We needed an easy-to-use microcontroller in the garden to handle some tasks like watering. Programming the Arduino isn't quite painless, but the free IDE avialible from the Arduino website is easy to use and comes with handy example code. Which is good because some of our team members are new to microcontroller programming. The best part though is the community. There are hundreds (maybe thousands) of projects with sample code available online. All together, the Arduino Duemilanove (Italian for 2009) is a no-brainer for us.
