Arduino has spent more than two decades making electronics and embedded programming accessible to students, hobbyists, engineers and product developers around the world.
What began as an open-source microcontroller platform has evolved into a widely used development ecosystem, with its technology now helping to prototype products across industries ranging from automotive and industrial automation to connected devices and robotics.
The company’s acquisition by semiconductor giant Qualcomm marks a new chapter in that evolution. By combining Qualcomm’s AI and computing technologies with Arduino’s developer tools and open-source philosophy, the company aims to lower the barriers to developing intelligent machines, particularly in robotics and edge AI applications.
