Associating s/w programming with h/w programming

Question

I've been in s/w programming for years. Thru out the years i also had interest in h/w programming (circuits + robotics + etc).

Please advice from where i can start h/w programming. my aim is to combine both s/w & h/w to work together.

Answer 1

I'd recommend Arduinos if you want to try some embedded programming. They're cheap, IDE works on multiple platforms and especially they are easy to start with.
