In this article we create a UV display project, we will use a Si1145 sensor which is connected to an LCD keypad shield and an Arduino Uno The Si1145/46/47 is a low-power, reflectance-based, infrared proximity, ultraviolet (UV) index, and ambient…
In this article we create a distance measurement ultrasonic project, we will use an Arduino Uno with an LCD Keypad shield. We will then connect the HY-SFR05 to this shield and display the readings on the LCD. Lets go and…
In this project we will get the current altitude and temperature using an MPL3115A2 pressure sensor connected to an LCD keypad shield fitted to an Arduino Uno Here is a little information regarding the sensor. The MPL3115A2 is a compact, piezoresistive,…
In this article we create a thermometer based project using an LCD shield, Arduino Uno and an MLX90615 sensor. Lets discuss the sensor first The MLX90615 is a miniature infrared thermometer for non-contact temperature measurements. Both the IR sensitive thermopile…
In this project we will create a basic gas sensor detector, we will use the CCS811 gas sensor and connect this to an LCD keypad shield. Lets look at the gas sensor first. The CCS811 is a low-power digital gas…
In this example we will create a lux meter using a GA1A12S202 sensor and display the readings on an LCD shield The features of this sensor are as follows Output voltage increases with light on the sensor Logarithmic response not only…
Another project – this time were building another lux meter, we will use a TSL2561 sensor and display the readings on an LCD keypad shield Lets recap some information regarding the sensor This TSL2561 is an I2C light-to-digital converter TSL2561…
In this simple project we will create a basic barometer using an MS5611 sensor You can find out more about this sensor at http://www.te.com/usa-en/product-CAT-BLPS0036.html , the easiest way to use this sensor is using a module like the one below MS5611 Features…
In this example we will build a simple lux meter using an OPt3001 and an Arduino Lets look at the OPT3001 first of all The OPT3001 is a sensor that measures the intensity of visible light. The spectral response of…
The GUVA-S12SD UV Sensor chip is suitable for detecting the UV radiation in sunlight. It can be used in any application where you want monitor for the amount of UV light and is simple to connect to any microcontroller. I recently noticed…
The MAX44009 ambient light sensor features an I²C digital output that is ideal for a number of portable applications such as smartphones, notebooks, and industrial sensors. At less than 1µA operating current, it is the lowest power ambient light sensor…
The MMA7361L is a low power, low profile capacitive micromachined accelerometer featuring signal conditioning, a 1-pole low pass filter, temperature compensation, self test, 0g-Detect which detects linear freefall, and g-Select which allows for the selection between 2 sensitivities. Zero-g offset…
