Arduino? Raspberry Pi?

What do you think?

[xbzuzuj]

Good analogy. Potatoes are more important to life than a rocket.

[ssscorpionnn]

Do you use an airplane to go 5 kilometers? Some things are according to your needs. And this is a comparison that someone who doesn't know these things can make.

Arduino: Microcontroller
Pi: Microprocessor

[olhoTron]

The Arduino (and all microcontrollers with in-order CPUs and embeded SRAM in general) still wins in applications that requires very precise and predictable timing, like an ECU for example

[Fenyx_Bishop]

Simply put they are completely different and both have their uses. Want to run a home server or network monitor/firewall, go with the Pi. Want to make pretty much anything that is powered by electricity and isn’t a smart device, go with Arduino.

It's less like comparing a potato and a rocket and more like comparing a fishing boat and a cruise liner.

You could, in theory, take a cruise liner every time you go fishing, but 99% of its capabilities would remain unused, and you'll spend more time navigating the decks than actually fishing.

microcontrollers:
- tons of peripherials, timers, interfaces, etc.
- realtime, full control of execution up to cycle
- instant power on
- low power down to microamps
- reliable
- tiny
pi:
- good luck running your critical task on something that boots from the sd card
- closed blobs
etc

Wait, if it has a 64 bit processor, Linux and bluethoot, IT CAN BE THE BEST EMULATOR FOR ME 😂😂

[sinohehenayati]

That was the worst comparison I’ve ever heard. These are two different things for different purposes!

[valeriangregoire]

It feels off to compare the two without mentioning the price difference. Microcontrollers such as the UNO, nano, and a lot of other microcontrollers that use ATmega/ESP32/STM32 chips hardly cost more than 30 bucks, while a raspberry pi easily costs twice the price. It would be more fitting to compare teensy, nano, and raspberry pico microcontrollers imo 😬

Mouse and keyboard into the only high speed ports, awesome choice.

[reflectivejellyfish]

Good to know potatoes are used in crucial embedded devices

[waynefong]

I use arduino to read most of my analog sensors and connect it to a pi to act as a monitoring server that can interact with various linux and programming features.

[ThatJay]

with a raspberry pi, good luck finding one that's in stock. with Arduino, this is a nonissue. you can even purchase bulk amounts of the atmega328 chips the arduino uses super cheap from ebay, get a usb asp programmer, hook up the power and capacitors, plug in the programmer into pins reset, 11, 12, and 13, and then you have a cheap chip that can do everything arduino can do but able to be embedded more direcrly into your projects and doesnt matter too much if you kill it :)

Each serves a use case, Arduino is programmed in C, not C++

[pizzibarbaro]

arduino is a programmable circuit board that costs 5 dollars, raspberry pi is a computer that costs 50 dollars

[ReconYz]

why does youtube think im stupid? is it because i watch jerry springer too?

[wm]

When running an OS on a PI, you dont program the PI....you program programs running on the OS running on the PI...this is a big difference.
I love your hardware videos very much, but this comparison here is really inaccurate.

Arduino: 10$ Rasberry: 100$ so it depends on the use

[laydendiaz-pg]

the Arduino Uno R3 is approximately 37, 100% more powerful in terms of clock speed than the Apollo Guidance Computer used in the moon landings.
