That's actually the nice thing about it. After you've designed and debugged your project on the Arduino board, you can implement it with a $2.50 AVR (+ a few support items).
You can't do that with, for example, the Raspberry PI or the Netduino.
- dfox 14y agoThat makes sense, but what doesn't is incredible amount of projects and things (and not only DIY, I've seen some one of commercial designs done exactly in this way) that just embeds whole arduino board connected by bunch of random wires to something (preferably something composed of another relatively expensive breakout boards).
- ComputerGuru 14y agoFor one-off projects, the 25 extra bucks aren't really the killer. I don't see the problem with using an arduino in a commercial setting, so long as you're not mass-producing with said arduino.
- jauer 14y agoIt isn't $2.50 but you can get a chip running .NETMF/netduino (no carrier board etc) for under $16: http://www.ghielectronics.com/catalog/product/117 http://www.ghielectronics.com/catalog/product/117
