Energia was a
Soviet Rocket
Energia is a rapid electronics prototyping platform for the Texas Instruments msp430 LaunchPad.
Energia is based on Wiring and Arduino and uses the Processing IDE. It is a fork of the Arduino
ecosystem, but centered around the popular TI microntrollers: MSP430 and ARM Cortex-M4F.
Similar to it’s predecessor, it an open-sourced project. It’s development is community supported,
being hosted on github.com.
