The Arduino Sensor Kit is an Arduino UNO shield kit based on the Grove Beginner Kit. It has the exact same module and almost the same usage as the Grove Beginner Kit. It retains the advantages of the Grove Beginner Kit , without soldering, breadboards, or even wiring!
The major diference between Grove Beginner Kit and Arduino Sensor Kit is that Sensor Kit needs Arduino Uno to work .
Led module is connected to digital Pin 6 that gives us the option to create projects like Fade .

Tech specs
The kit includes:
HARDWARE
1 Base Shield that is designed to fit on top of an Arduino UNO board. It comes equipped with 16 grove connectors, which, when placed on top of the UNO, provides functionality to various pins. It includes:
- 7x digital connections
- 4x analog connections
- 4x I2C connections
- 1x UART connection
10 Grove modules included can be connected to the base shield, either through the digital, analog or I2C connectors on the shield. Let’s take a quick look at them:
- The LED – simple LED that can be turned ON or OFF, or dimmed.
- The button – pushbutton that can either be in a HIGH or LOW state.
- The potentiometer – a variable resistor that increases or decreases resistance when turning its knob.
- The buzzer – a piezo speaker that is used to produced binary sounds.
- The light sensor – a photoresistor that reads light intensity.
- The sound sensor – a tiny microphone that measures sound vibrations.
- The air pressure sensor – reads air pressure, using I2C protocol.
- The temperature sensor – reads temperature and humidity at the same time.
- The accelerometer – a sensor used for orientation, used for detecting movement.
- The OLED screen – a screen that values or messages can be printed to.
6 Grove cables allows you to easily connect the modules to the Base Shield without any soldering required.
