Shaped like a games controller, the Esplora is an Arduino with its inputs and sensors already soldered on: a 2-axis analogue joystick with a centre button, four pushbuttons, a linear slider, plus light, temperature, microphone and 3-axis accelerometer sensors, a buzzer and an RGB LED. It runs an ATmega32U4 at 16 MHz with native USB, so it can pretend to be a keyboard or mouse and drive a PC directly. Nothing to wire - plug it in and start coding.
