Arduino vs Raspberry Pi

Question

Is Arduino better than Raspberry Pi in general when it comes to robotic applications? Or are there specific Arduinos and Raspberry Pis that work with robotics?

Answer 1

A Raspberry Pi is better if you need a full operating system environment, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. You have to install an operating system, such as Linux, and then you can install/update/write whatever code for it. It is probably better for things like media centers, smart mirrors, home automation control, etc.

An Arduino is a specialized board that is excellent at reading sensors. You write your code and compile it then load it onto the board. It's better for things like robotics.

If you intend your robotic application to require WiFi, HDMI (video), Audio, etc., then Raspberry Pi will give you that flexibility. If you only want to build a robot that can operator motors and sensors and basically behave autonomously, then the Arduino is probably your best choice.

Here is a great page that discusses those two:

The ESP32 is another option that I've seen around, but don't know much about it. I know it's small and cheap. Here's a web page that compares the three devices and their strengths.
