Over
500,000 BASIC Stamps are in use around the world. The popularity of the
BASIC Stamp is a result of its ease of interfacing to electronic circuits,
quick development time with a simple programming language, and high
reliability in a diverse set of applications.
From the humble beginnings with the
BASIC Stamp Rev. D in 1992, the Stamp line has expanded to include
8 different types of BASIC Stamp modules with varying
capabilities.
