Sumario:ATLAS is a general-purpose experiment under preparation for the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The scientific motivation and experimental environment, and how they have influenced the design of the experiment, are described. This is followed by a description of the measurement systems with their detector components and their status. Finally are shown some examples of the simulated performance on a few physics channels.
