BSOS (Bally/Stern Operating System) is a library of functions enabling an Arduino or other microcontroller to control a pinball machine. An adapter board interfaces the Arduino to the pinball machine's MPU (Main Processor Unit) either through a diagnostic port or the CPU socket. Then, the Arduino is able to control the machine's lamps, sounds, switches, and solenoids.
With BSOS, people have created new rules for many early solid state pinball machines.
