External device input

I am looking into what's the best method for getting external data (custom built hardware) and to intercept and process this data (programming language / tool), the cheapest and easiest and with the least learning curve.

Background: I am a web dev.

External device will be switches, motion detection, velocity detection Programming language: Delphy (which I don't know)? or C# (which I know for web dev) or other?

Anyone done anything like this before? Got any advice?

Any and all information is appreciated.

The easiest solution might be to use an Arduino.

It's :

  • cheap (~ 30$)
  • easy to program
  • easy to connect to your PC (it use an USB cable which emulate a serial connection)
  • have a HUGE community with tons of tutorials for doing whatever you want

Here is an example how to control a led using C#
