The key Difference between Arduino and Raspberry Pi is that Arduino is optimized for low-power, real-time control applications, while Raspberry Pi is better suited for more complex projects that require a full-fledged computer with more processing power and connectivity options.

Comparison Chart
- Arduino And Raspberry Pi both have different features and functionalities, here is a comparison of some key features between them.
Arduino | Raspberry Pi |

Arduino uses very less RAM, 2 kB. | Raspberry Pi requires more RAM, 1 GB. |
Arduino

For Use Arduino requires one Computer for Development using USB Cable And Arduino Software For Development.
Raspberry Pi
Raspberry Also Required Computer for install os in Micro Sd Card. After that 2 methods of use.
- Simply Connect Display / Keyboard / Mouse.
- Connect in Network using Lan Cable and Access in Computer.
