What is InduinoX?
InduinoX is an indian made Arduino clone board. InduinoX is a clone of the popluar Arduino Duemilanove, the predecessor of the current Arduino UNO. It is functionally and mechanically very similar to the Arduino Duemilanove and will work with all types of Shields made for the Arduino Uno / Duemilanove.
About 3 years back, we designed our first Arduino Clone the Induino. We named it Induino to add to our pride of having made it in India. The Induino was an affordable arduino clone that was priced at 800/- [The cheapest to be sold on some scale at that time!] however the Induino evolved over a period of time to include many on-board peripherals increasing the experimentation capabilities and became the InduinoX.
