Intro
Many Splat*Spacer's are fans of the Arduino microcontroller prototyping and experimentation platform. The Triangle Arduino Hackers group holds regular events at different locations in the Triangle, including Splat*Space and TechShop RDU. Checkout their wiki page for more information on Arduino's and other microcontrollers.
