SKU: PL-2462 | Brand: Pololu

The Vishay TSSP58038 is a modulated IR receiver that is designed specifically for sensing applications instead of data communication for remote control. Unlike most similar-looking units, it has a fixed gain that mak...

SKU: DF-SEN0523 | Brand: DFRobot

This IR break-beam photoelectric switch detects objects by sending an invisible infrared beam from an emitter to a receiver. When a non-transparent object passes between the two and breaks the beam, the receiver outpu...

SKU: SB-21819 | Brand: Little Bird

The Pico Air Monitoring Expansion is a HAT for Raspberry Pi Pico that measures suspended particulate matter (PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10) in the air. It uses a PMSA003 digital laser dust sensor and includes an onboard 0.91...

SKU: EC-SPM01021S | Brand: Elecrow

This water sensor works by having a series of exposed traces connected to ground and interlaced between the grounded traces are the sens traces. The sensor board has a demension of 5.0 x 4.0cm. There is also a on-boar...

SKU: SF-COM-15141 | Brand: SparkFun

Rotary encoders can be used similarly to potentiometers. The difference being that an encoder has full rotation without limits (It just goes round and round). They output gray code so that you can tell how much and in...

SKU: PL-1131 | Brand: Pololu

This small digital distance sensor detects objects between 0.5 cm and 5 cm (0.2″ and 2″) away. With its quick response time, small size, low current draw, and short minimum sensing distance, this sensor is a...

SKU: DF-SEN0447 | Brand: DFRobot

A capacitive proximity sensor with an adjustable detection range of 1–10 mm, capable of detecting both metallic and non-metallic objects. Unlike inductive sensors that only respond to metals, this capacitive sensor de...

SKU: TB-XC4444 | Brand: Little Bird

A pyroelectric infrared (PIR) motion sensor module for Arduino and microcontroller projects. It detects movement from people and animals by sensing changes in infrared radiation, outputting a digital high signal when ...

SKU: PL-1135 | Brand: Pololu

This small digital distance sensor detects objects between 2 cm and 10 cm (0.8″ and 4″) away. With its quick response time, small size, and low current draw, this sensor is a good choice for non-contact obje...
