Based on some comments from the Arduino co-founder [1], their Pro boards are "designed to be embedded in industrial equipment, robots etc". I'm not sure anyone in industry takes that seriously, though.

- willis936 5y agoSo more like competing with a PLC? It would need to go a lot further than a be a tiny PCB. I see all sorts of cheap MCUs used by engineers in industry for non-industrial environments. I guess they're targeting this market, but considering they have been getting by with hobbyist hardware I want to know what makes this new product more valuable.
- duskwuff 5y agoAgreed. As an "industrial" or "robotics" product it's half-baked at best; simply using components which are rated for the industrial temperature range (-40 to 85°C) is hardly enough to target that market.
