OEM Newbi: How to host a small Java application on a dedicated hardware platform?

Question

I am still learning Java, but want to embed a small Java program on a user hardware device. It seems to me that I lack a degree in technology ... but maybe someone here can point me in the right direction?

I would like to do something very small and simple. My idea is to write a small Java application that controls 10-20 LED lamps and makes them blink in different patterns.

I would like to create (or buy) a small user device and place my Java application on it, having a small user block with the “on” and “off” switch, which will run my Java code, which will then control the LEDs. When I flip the switch, my code runs!

Are there starter kits or tutorials for this kind of thing? Do I need to buy a soldering iron? I tried Google, but I'm not sure what google really is ... Any guidance would be appreciated.

Answer 5

Please learn C. This language (next to the assembly) is closest to the built-in machine that you will be trying to program. C is not complicated, and the language manual is about 130 pages, not more than 600 pages, as with java. And you do not need to learn the whole language.

Arduino is a great platform to start with, but for that you will need to learn C.
