GETTING STARTED WITH SENSORS KIT teaches you how to connect and read sensors through a series of short projects using the popular Arduino or Raspberry Pi microcontrollers.
In the included fully-illustrated book you will gain hands-on experience with some of the most useful and instructive sensors available.
Among the sensors and applications in the book you’ll learn how to detect and respond to:
distance with an ultrasonic sensor
proximity with an infra-red sensor
illumination with a photo resistor
temperature with a solid state sensor
force with a flex sensor
speed detection with a hall effect sensor
piezoelectric volume control with a potentiometer
flasher control with a 555 timer
Note that Arduino and Raspberry Pi are not included in this kit.
