Another temperature project, this time we will use a TMP102 to an LCD keypad shield The TMP102 device is a digital temperature sensor ideal for NTC/PTC thermistor replacement where high accuracy is required. The device offers an accuracy of ±0.5°C…

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…

This Rich Shield for the Arduino has many useful components onboard such as LED’s, buttons and a buzzer. It is easy and great for learning arduino development and programming This is the shield with a little remote control, in this…

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…
