Life has its ups and downs, so why not measure them? The MPL3115A2 is a MEMS pressure sensor that provides Altitude data to within 30cm (with oversampling enabled). The sensor outputs are digitized by a high reso...

SKU: AF-374 | Brand: Adafruit

These 1-wire digital temperature sensors are fairly precise (±0.5°C over much of the range) and can give up to 12 bits of precision from the onboard digital-to-analog converter. They work great with any microcontro...

SKU: AF-3246 | Brand: Adafruit

A neat little breakout board designed for mounting a PSP-style mini thumbstick to your project. The board features panel-mount friendly hole placement and dual-sided headers for mechanical stability when connected to ...

SKU: SF-SEN-11005 | Brand: SparkFun

This non-invasive current sensor (also known as a split-core current transformer) clamps around the supply line of an electrical load to measure how much current is flowing through it. The sensor acts as an inductor, ...

SKU: AF-444 | Brand: Adafruit

Add a tiny joystick to your project with this PSP thumbstick. This is a replacement component for PSP1000's, but we think they'd make for a great little joystick/thumbstick add-on for a wearable, or portable pro...

SKU: DF-SEN0162 | Brand: DFRobot

The Gravity Analog UV Sensor V2 uses a GUVA-S12SD photodiode to detect ultraviolet radiation in the 200–370 nm (UV-A) wavelength range. It outputs a linear analogue voltage signal proportional to UV intensity, making ...

SKU: DF-SEN0183 | Brand: DFRobot

The CMPS11 is a 3rd-generation tilt-compensated magnetic compass module that combines a 3-axis magnetometer, 3-axis gyroscope, and 3-axis accelerometer. An onboard Kalman filter fuses gyro and accelerometer data to re...

SKU: AF-483 | Brand: Adafruit

Detect particles and/or make a cool random number generator with this handsome Geiger counter kit. This easy-to-make pack of parts turns a simple Geiger-Muller tube (included) into a portable blink, beeping radiati...

SKU: AF-574 | Brand: Adafruit

Put a current meter anywhere with this very handy display. This panel meter requires a DC voltage to run, and then has two thick gauge wires to measure current draw. A shunt is already on board so its very easy to hoo...

SKU: AF-576 | Brand: Adafruit

Put a temperature meter anywhere with this very handy display. This panel meter displays the temperature of the attached waterproof 1% thermistor in °C. It does require a DC voltage to run, at 4.5-30VDC. It has revers...

SKU: SF-SEN-12642 | Brand: SparkFun

The SparkFun Sound Detector is a small and very easy to use audio sensing board with three different outputs. The Sound Detector not only provides an audio output, but also a binary indication of the presence of so...

SKU: SF-BOB-10160 | Brand: SparkFun

Here is a real time clock based on the DS3234 Real Time Clock IC. The DS3234 is a low-cost, extremely accurate SPI bus real-time clock with an integrated temperature-compensated crystal oscillator and crystal. Th...

SKU: AF-1918 | Brand: Adafruit

An analog UV light sensor breakout based on the GUVA-S12SD photodiode, detecting the 240–370nm range covering UVB and most of the UVA spectrum. An on-board op-amp amplifies the tiny photodiode current to a readable vo...

SKU: SF-SEN-09674 | Brand: SparkFun

This very long force sensitive resistor - over 2 feet - has a sensing area of 0.25x24". This FSR from Interlink Electronics will vary its resistance depending on how much pressure is being applied to the sensing area....

SKU: DF-SEN0203 | Brand: DFRobot

The DFRobot heart rate sensor is a thumb-sized heart rate monitor designed for Arduino microcontrollers. This sensor is a pulse sensor which is developed based on PPG (PhotoPlethysmoGraphy) techniques. This ...

SKU: DF-DFR0030 | Brand: DFRobot

A digital capacitive touch sensor from DFRobot's Gravity series. It detects touch through the same capacitive sensing technology used in smartphones — even through thin cloth or paper. The sensor outputs a digital hig...

SKU: DF-SEN0018 | Brand: DFRobot

This is a simple to use arduino motion sensor. Power it up and wait 1-2 seconds for the sensor to get a snapshot of the still room. If anything moves after that period, the 'alarm' pin will go low. This sensor c...

SKU: DF-SEN0220 | Brand: DFRobot

The Gravity UART Infrared CO2 Sensor uses non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) technology to measure carbon dioxide concentrations from 0 to 50,000 ppm. It offers excellent selectivity with no oxygen dependency, built-in te...
