Intelligence always prevails over strength, and that is why Humans rule over other animals.
Strength prevails over Intelligene, this is why Polititions rule the intelligent people.Single Baord Computer is a complete computer built on a single circuit board with micro-processors, memory, I/O and other features required of a funcitonal computer.
Arduino is an open-source computer hardware and software company, project and user community that designs and manufactures kits for building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control the physical world Arduino boards may be purchased preassembled, or as do-it-yourself kits; at the same time, the hardware design information is available for those who would like to assemble an Arduino from scratch.
There are two types of SBCs:
- Raspberry Pi
- Banana Pi
The Arduino board is basically a microcontroller whereas the SBCs are microprocessors. These Arduino boards are nowhere near to a computer. They cannot run an OS on them. But the SBCs is so close to the mordern computers that, they even can be called as small computers. It can an OS in it.
Another basic difference we can find between the SBCs and the Arduino is that Arduino boards are used to control systems. Like in timers and all. The SBCs are not used for this pupose. They can be used for controlling, but for controlling the excess memory that the SBCs own are not required. Thus they are used for processing of data. Maybe a complicated mathematical funtion, is calculated using the SBCs.
The arduino boards can only be programmed in the specific language and it is directly written in the board. No Firmware is present inside it. Whereas Raspberry is programmed even using the C language, and then saved in the Raspberry Pi. Most of the times, SBCs run on Linux OS.
Banana Pi is an SBC that can run Android, Ubuntu or Debian. The capabilities of the Banana Pi is much more than that of Raspberry Pi. These can be used in mobile phones and such devices.
