The Nano V3.0 is an ultra-compact development board based on open-source hardware. Compared to the earlier USB-based Arduino Diecimila, the Arduino Nano offers significant advantages in terms of size while retaining full functionality.
This board is ideal for creating interactive electronic devices that operate independently, as well as for projects requiring a connection to a computer. It seamlessly integrates with software platforms such as Flash, Processing, Max/MSP, Pure Data (PD), and VVVV, making it a powerful tool for interactive art, real-time data processing, and multimedia applications.
Equipped with ample I/O options, the Nano is versatile and suitable for a variety of projects, from simple sensor-based tasks to complex control systems. Its small size and USB-powered design make it particularly useful for prototyping and embedding in space-constrained devices.
