The Raspberry Pi and Arduino both contain microprocessors, the actual Central Processing Unit (CPU) integrated circuit chips that perform the execution of software code. The Raspberry Pi is a microcomputer, whereas the Arduino is a microcontroller ( AKA Microcontroller Unit or MCU). The Raspberry Pi microcomputer has a full Linux-like operating system (OS); the Arduino generally runs a single program.

The distinctions between microprocessors and microcontrollers can get a bit blurry, since in practice they can often perform similar tasks. But you can think of a Raspberry Pi as almost the same as a desktop computer, without the peripherals. Indeed, some peopleContent unavailable! (broken link)https://service.robots.org.nz/wiki/images/out.png have outfitted their Pis with keyboards, mice, large screen monitors, and use them for everyday computing tasks.

The Raspberry Pi has several interfaces, the 40 pin GPIO, the 2 pin I2C and the SPI serial interfaces.

Here's a recipe for how to blink an LED on the Raspberry Pi.

The KR01 robot uses a Raspberry Pi 3 B+, the KRZ01 robot uses a Raspberry Pi Zero W.

Pico#

On the 21st of January, 2021, the Raspberry Pi Foundation released its own microcontroller board called the Raspberry Pi Pico. Despite its name it's not a Single Board Computer (SBC) like the Raspberry Pi, uses a different CPU chipset (designed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation), and is significantly cheaper than any Pi at US$4.
