This paper describes an Arduino Due based platform for digital signal processing (DSP) education. The platform consists of an in-house developed shield for robust interfacing with analog audio signals and user inputs, and an off-the-shelf Arduino Due that executes the students' DSP code. This combination enables direct use of the Arduino integrated development environment (IDE), with its low barrier to entry for students, its low maintenance need and cross platform interoperability, and its large user base. Relevant hardware and software features of the platform are discussed throughout, as are design choices made in relation to learning objectives, and the planned use of the platform in our own DSP course.
