- EpicEng 12y agoAm Arduino is not a production solution. It's great for prototyping, but to expensive for mass production. You go with something as small and cheap as possible.
- TD-Linux 12y agoYou can totally use the Arduino in production, and it's happened quite often. The core of the Arduino is just the ATMega8 micro, which is only a few dollars - Arduino is just a nice programming environment and set of libraries for it.
- neohaven 12y agoCan you? Sure. Should you? Oh, sure, if you want a very expensive piece of hardware in your product.
