It really depends on what your constraints are. Personally, I would use some cheap micro controllers (all but Microchip) combined with some simple analog circuitry. Arduino does not fall in the category of cheap micro controllers as far as I know and wireless capabilities must be added with a separate shield. The upside of Arduino is that there is a huge developers community, the good general availability of the parts and easy programming of the Arduino. In short, using Arduino is most certainly easier than normal micro controllers, but some things you might want to use are not easily added and used and are more costly to use.
