You can build many types of robotics project on Viam, from single-component projects to human-in-the-loop or AI-powered autonomous intelligent systems.

What makes Viam special is the ability to rapidly create prototypes using:

-[Hardware agnostic](/operate/hello-world/quickstart/#supported-platforms): Viam runs on almost all single-board computers.
42

-[Builder UI](/operate/modules/supported-hardware/#configure-hardware-on-your-machine): Configure and test hardware and software with a simple interface.
43

-[SDKs](/dev/reference/sdks/): Program machines in your favorite programming language.
44

As you go from prototype to production, Viam reduces complexity with sensible design patterns:
58
+
54
59
-[Modules](/operate/modules/other-hardware/create-module/): The foundational building blocks of machines which keep your machine code maintainable as your project grows in complexity because you can make changes to single modules without changing the rest of the project.
55
60
-[Standardized APIs](/dev/reference/apis/): It doesn't matter which robotic arm, motor, or other piece of hardware you are using, the code to operate the hardware is the same. This means you can swap hardware as you iterate.
56
61
-[Parts and sub-parts](/operate/reference/architecture/parts/): Create arbitrarily complex projects by connecting multiple `viam-server` instances.
