ELEGOO Upgraded 37 in 1 Sensor Modules Kit with Tutorial Compatible with Arduino IDE UNO R3 MEGA Nano

A great collect of sensors that’ll work with any programmable controller or PLC.The build quality looks good.

Ok

I knew very little about Arduinos and had a need to learn for my model railroad. I have good electronics circuit knowledge, but no clue about coding and how to load that to a chip. The tutorial starts off simple and explains some things like what various inputs and outputs can handle up front. There are good photos and progresses you quickly through mini circuits to sample all the little do-dads this kit comes with, which is an impressive collection of sensors and output devices. In 1 day I went from having a concept of what I though it could do, to having it execute it. That was the result of using CoPilot AI to write my code. So, if you know electronics and can articulate with some specificity what you need the arduino to do, the code is written for you by copilot, copy and paste it to the arduino compiler and upload. Not working quite right? tell CoPilot what needs to be fixed, cooy/upload rinse repeat until you are satisfied. This kit opened a world of possibility to me and would be a great gift for that teenage lego lover that wants to move from those mechanical connections to more electrical. Then the arduino could be back integrated to automate the lego!!*my photo contains a relay block output component not in the kit.

Excelente pack para trabajos de electronica

Let me state first I am totally 100% new to Arduino. It looks cool and I saw this kit and thought it would be a good way to get my feet wet. I've just now gotten time to start playing with this and have gotten to lesson four. The modules come in a nice sturdy plastic box and are all separated. There is an insert in the lid that shows you the location of each part with its image and its name, a few have the actual part number too. For instance, there is one named "temp and humidity" and one named "18b20 Temp". The instruction book shows you a picture of which module you should use with that activity lesson so it should be easy for anyone to identify what they need.What this kit could use is some work in the information that it provides. This is not a tutorial on how to use Arduino, it's a tutorial for someone who already knows how to use an Arduino and who now wants to experiment using modules with it. Each lesson shows you how to wire things up, gives an explanation of what you are attempting to accomplish and why you are using that particular module. It also goes into some detail on why it's going to work the way it does and what the technical specifications for the module is but what got me was the very last part in the lessons- After I had everything connected and was ready to go the instructions simply said to "upload the program and open the monitor". What program??? There’s a monitor? How do I upload a program? What's the name of the program and where do I find it? How do I access this monitor thing? Through trial and error and various search engines I'm getting there. It seems the programs are there within the Arduino application but I have had to basically click on every example it has (there’s a lot) to find what I needed and learn how to use an Arduino on the fly.I did have to download a new library for the temp sensor used in lesson two (which is actually the first lesson with connecting a module), it would not work with the code provided and I thought maybe it was a defective module but after downloading the “Arduino-Temperature-Control-Library-master” library from the internet it worked fine. Hopefully that’s a onetime thing but again it would have been nice to tell me what examples I need to load for each module to make it function. Lesson three worked fine although I still had to hunt for what example was needed for it within the menu. FYI an “Example” is a predefined piece of code based on the module you select and it loads the files needed to make the module work. The “monitor” is under Tools, it’s named “serial monitor” and opens a separate window so you can see the results your module is outputting if any after you have selected your example and have uploaded it to your Arduino.So it’s a good kit from what I can tell being a newbie to all this. Buying these things separately would cost a lot more I’m sure. I imagine if I can figure out how to get all of these to work I’ll have a good working knowledge of Arduino by then, I definitely know a lot more now about it than when I started and this is just day 3!

A bunch of inexpensive sensors to experiment with. Pairs great with an Elegoo starter set, or any other Arduino based starter set. It's easy enough to figure out how to use the sensors by searching online for "<sensor name>" (pictures included help identification) and "arduino". Very fun to see what they can do!

Good idea

Good product for learning robotics.
