Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.
See Wikipedia for more details on Arduino.
Overview
The Arduino programming language is based on Wiring and is essentially C/C++ (several simple transformations are performed before passing to the avr-gcc compiler). The goal of the Arduino project is to make tools available that are accessible, low-cost, low capital investment, flexible and easy-to-use for artists and hobbyists, particularly those who might not otherwise have access to more sophisticated controllers that require more complicated tools.
