Sensors & Module

This is an all-new Thermal Imaging Camera Module from SeeedStudio in the Grove ecosystem series. This Thermal Imaging Camera can also be used as an infrared thermometer module, it is based on a single-point medical-grade infrared temperature sensor (MLX90641), which can detect the temperature of objects with an accuracy of ±0.2°C in the body temperature range.

An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by electric current. An electric current flowing in a wire creates a magnetic field around the wire, due to Amperes law. To concentrate the magnetic field, in an electromagnet the wire is wound into a coil with many turns of wire lying side by side. The magnetic field of all the turns of wire passes through the center of the coil, creating a strong magnetic field there

Grove OLED 1.12 is a 16 color grayscale 9696 dot-matrix OLED display module with Grove compatible 4pin I2C interface. Grove OLED 1.12 is constructed with a 96 x 96 dot-matrix OLED module ([ LY120])and SSD1327 driver IC.

Want to display fonts, numbers, and symbols on LCD? So for you, we are presenting the Grove – 16×2 LCD v2.0. This is a white on blue display having 16 characters and 2 rows with high brightness backlight. It supports I2C communication with your micro-controller, so pins are provided for data exchange and backlight control shrinks from ~10 to 2, relieving IOs for other challenging tasks; moreover, it is also able to display English and Japanese fonts which are very convenient for the user. Grove – 16 x 2 LCD (White on Blue) is ready to use with micro-controllers as a digital input. This product also has a compact modular design Plug-and-play grove compatible interface. In the picture below, the grove shield for Arduino is stacked with Seeeduino V4.2. You can also use the shield with Arduino.

The Grove 2-Channel Inductive Sensor is based on Texas Instruments(TI) LDC1612, a 28-bit inductance to digital converter(LDC) for inductive sensing solutions. With multiple channels and support for remote sensing, the LDC1612 enables the performance and reliability benefits of inductive sensing to be realized at minimal cost and power. Inductance is an effect caused by the magnetic field of a current-carrying conductor acting back on the conductor. So by sensing the inductance, this sensor can detect the proximity of conductors especially metal nearby.

The Grove 2-Channel SPDT Relay has two single pole double throw (SPDT) switches. It only requires low-voltage and low current signals to control those switches. Specifically, you can use 5V DC to control max.250V AC or 110V DC.

Need a gesture detection device? So we have the Grove 3-Axis Digital Accelerometer(1.5g) v1.3 especially for you. This is a low power as well as low profile capacitive MEMS sensor. It is based onA7660FC, a low power consumption module by Freescale. It features up to 10,000g shock survivability, thus its a highly durable device; moreover, it also has configurable samples per second rate.
