Arduino Starter Kit for Engineers (Sensor Suite)
Arduino Starter Kit for Engineers (Sensor Suite)
This Arduino starter kit has been tailored directly to engineers interested in real-world applications involving sensors. We avoided many of the out-of-date sensors that often accompany Arduino kits and targeted several relevant and interesting areas of engineering: temperature and humidity sensing, infrared time-of-flight distance sensing, and visible spectrum light intensity detection, and MEMS microphone audio sensing. In conjunction with these sensors, the kit also comes with an Arduino Uno microcontroller, jumper wires for connecting the sensors, an RGB LED indicator, and plastic component enclosure.

1x Maker Portal Arduino Uno Board
1x BH1750 Light Sensor
1x DHT22 Temperature and Humidity Sensor
1x VL53L0X Time-of-Flight Distance Sensor
1x MEMS Microphone
1x RGB LED
10x Male-to-Female Jumper Wires
1x Plastic Component Box
1x USB 2.0 Cable for Arduino
Features of the Arduino Starter Kit for Engineers (Sensor Suite):
Detect light, temperature, humidity, distance, and sound
All sensors have easy-to-use Arduino-compatible libraries
The kit fits snugly into the component box, excluding the USB cable
Each sensor has a real-world application for prototyping in topics ranging from: environmental monitoring, industrial engineering, obstacle avoidance in robotics, home automation, and more!
