Internet of Things
I wish to do few IOT starter projects. The Arduino UNO device looks great, its affordable and its open source software and hardware by design. Supports Java programs :)
To do a simple project we need few artifacts like LEDs, bread board, jumper wires, power supply etc and of course Arduino or Rasberry Pi device. The starter kit below is interesting as it provides most of the things in one box

Another starter kit at lesser price:

and this video explains on what is the platform and start program:

Arduino is miniature computer with lot of flexibility. We need to buy shelds which would enable devices to plug ethernet/usb sockets.
If you want to order in india, protocentral has lots of options:
