Arduino Expansion Shield for Raspberry Pi B+
What's the difference between Pi and Arduino?
We all know Raspberry Pi is a mini-computer running on Linux operating system; while Arduino is a
microcontroller running on simple I/Os. Both of them focuses on very different areas. Compared with
Arduino, the Pi gets much better computing performance.
So What happens when a Pi meets an Arduino?
A simple example would be, when building a mobile robot, we use the Raspberry Pi to extend its vision
and get a nice tiny monitor. Meanwhile, Arduino handle nicely with the motor driving part and delivers
fast responses like obstacle avoidance. Because, without the OS, the response time of rapid changes on
the Arduino is much shorter. Also the high performance Pi can deals much easily with wireless
communications, imaging and running complex algorithm.
Therefore, with the Arduino and Pi together, you get a powerful "brain" and "cerebellum" for your
project, at one time.
