Short History
Massimo Banzi
helped invent the Arduino, a tiny, easy-to-use open-source
microcontroller that's inspired thousands of people around the world to
make the coolest things they can imagine — from toys to satellite gear.
Because, as he says, "You don't need anyone's permission to make
something great."
