Arduino Day is a global 24-hour celebration organized by the Arduino community for the community—a gathering of people interested in Arduino to share experiences and exchange information. Whether you are a student, educator, beginner, or professional developer.
What is Arduino?
Arduino is a convenient, flexible, and easy-to-use open-source electronics prototyping platform that includes hardware (various models of Arduino boards) and software (Arduino IDE). It is suitable for artists, designers, enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to tinker. Its main feature is its simple shape, which allows interaction with people, and even a ten-year-old can create something they want with it. Arduino can perceive the environment through various sensors and feedback to influence the environment by controlling lights, motors, and other devices. The microcontroller on the board can be programmed using the Arduino programming language, compiled into a binary file, and uploaded to the microcontroller. Projects based on Arduino can consist solely of Arduino or include Arduino and other software running on a PC, communicating with each other (such as Flash, Processing, MaxMSP) to achieve their goals.
What can you do with Arduino?

DFRduino UNO R3

1. DFRduino UNO R3 is fully compatible with the Arduino UNO R3 version. It uses a more powerful ATmega16U2 instead of 8U2. (Or the previous version’s FTDI board) This allows for faster conversion speeds and larger memory, making the UNO R3 version not require any driver installation on Linux or Mac (Windows requires an inf file) and has the ability to connect external keyboards, mice, joysticks, etc.
2. The UNO R3 also adds SDA and SCL ports next to AREF. Additionally, there are two new ports next to RESET. One port is IOREF, which allows the expansion board to adapt to the main board’s voltage. The other empty port is reserved for future expansion possibilities. The UNO R3 can be compatible with any existing expansion board and can adapt to new expansion boards with its additional ports.
3. A more stable RESET circuit. The RESET button has also been moved to a more convenient location near the USB interface.
4. The ATmega16U2 replaces the 8U2, but this does not mean that the 16K flash of R3 will run your code faster; this update serves the USB interface chip, theoretically allowing the UNO to simulate USB HID, such as MIDI/Joystick/Keyboard.
5. Note: To correctly install on some computers, DFRduino Uno R3 requires the Arduino 1.0 driver folder. We have tested and confirmed that R3 can be programmed on older versions of the IDE. However, when running R3 for the first time on a computer, you will need Arduino 1.0. If you are interested in the changes in the new version of the IDE, please check the Arduino official website’s version history for Arduino 1.0.
