Annotation: The integration of coding and tinkering with various forms of art in learning strategies has become essential in education, including physics education. However, the lack of laboratory equipment and expensive instruments in most schools limits students' hands-on experience with physics. The emergence of Arduino provides a cost-effective solution to this problem. Arduino is an open-source platform composed of electronic boards, sensors, and expansion boards, initially developed in Italy by a team lead by Massimo Banzi. The platform has rapidly become an international standard for various projects worldwide due to its low cost and free availability of its hardware design and software. Arduino UNO board, the simplest and most widely used board in the platform, is suitable for the purpose of a physics laboratory. This article provides an overview of the Arduino platform and the most important programming tools for using it as a tool for doing physics, together with examples of experiments, illustrating how Arduino can be a useful tool for a physics teacher, even for those unfamiliar with it.

Keywords: arduino, physics education, laboratory equipment, open-source platform, electronic boards, sensors, expansion boards, programming tools, Arduino IDE software, experiments, speed of sound, temperature.
