Sensors are the eyes and ears of electronics, they monitor external stimuli such as sound, light, pressure, and heat, and convert them into signals for your microcontroller to process.

We've got all kinds of sensors available for your project, so make sure that you pick the correct one for your hardware. If you get stuck, be sure to reach out to us via our forum.

Take a look at some of our sensor tutorials:

Accelerometers

Accelerometers are the basis of all motion control. They allow you to sense both static and dynamic acceleration and are easy to integrate into your project.

Some important factors to take into account when buying an accelerometer for your project:

  • Sensitivity (some have variable options)
  • Resolution
  • Communication method (eg. I2C or SPI)

    100% of 100
    SKU: SEN-09375 Brand: Sparkfun Guides (1)
    This is a force sensitive resistor with a round, 0.5" diameter, sensing area. This FSR will vary its resistance depending on how much pressure is being applied to the sensing area. The harder the force, the lower the resistance. When no pressure is being applied to the FSR its resistance will be larger than 1MΩ. This FSR can sense applied force anywhere in the range of 100g-10kg.

    The Water Flow sensor measures the rate of a liquid flowing through it. The YF-S201 water flow sensor consists of a plastic valve body, flow rotor and hall effect sensor. It is usually used at the inlet end to detect the amount of flow. When liquid flows through the sensor, a magnetic rotor will rotate and the rate of rotation will vary with the rate of flow. The hall effect sensor will then output a pulse width signal. Connect it to a microcontroller and you can monitor multiple devices such as your coffee maker, sprinkler or anything else, and control the water flow rate to suit your needs!
