Artoo actually can directly run on single-board Linux computers, such as the Beaglebone Black[1] or Raspberry Pi[2]. Running on such a device, it can in fact control other supported platforms connected to it, such as the Leap Motion or Sphero (with addon hardware as applicable). For simpler stuff like the Arduino (or other micro-controllers), however, Artoo needs to run on a beefier host platform and connect to the device remotely.
