Arduino Sensors

SKU: AF-2167 | Brand: Adafruit

Infrared (IR) break-beam sensors are a simple way to detect motion. They work by having an emitter side that sends out a beam of human-invisible IR light, then a receiver across the way which is sensitive to tha...

SKU: AF-158 | Brand: Adafruit

Hall effect sensors detect whether a magnet is near. Useful for non-contact/waterproof type switches, position sensors, rotary/shaft encoders. I tried dozens of different hall effect sensors to see which one wou...

SKU: AF-2384 | Brand: Adafruit

The "poor man's" accelerometer/motion sensor! These spring-vibration switches are medium sensitivity non-directional vibration induced trigger switches. Inside is a medium hardness spring coiled around a long metal...

The BS612 is a compact, fully configurable mini PIR motion sensor that detects movement from approximately 3–8 metres away with a 120° detection spread. Its small form factor makes it ideal for unobtrusive motion-sens...

SKU: AF-157 | Brand: Adafruit

IR sensor tuned to 38KHz, perfect for receiving commands from a TV remote control. Runs at 3V to 5V so it's great for any microcontroller.To use, connect pin 3 (all the way to the right) to 5V power, pin 2 (middle) to...

SKU: AF-4666 | Brand: Adafruit

A compact passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor that detects movement from approximately 3–8 metres away. Much smaller than standard PIR modules, making it ideal for unobtrusive, space-constrained projects. Fully self-...

The DHT11 is a basic, ultra low-cost digital temperature and humidity sensor. It uses a capacitive humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure the surrounding air, and spits out a digital signal on the data pin (no an...

SKU: AF-3846 | Brand: Adafruit

This is a pre-wired and waterproofed version of the DS18B20 sensor made with a PTFE wire cable. Handy for when you need to measure something far away, or in wet conditions. This sensor is a little more expensive th...
