The Floor Mat Switch works by spacing two strips of metal apart with thin squares of foam in-between them every .75 inches. The pairs of metal strips are spaced out 2.5 inches from each other for the length of the mat. When someone steps on the mat their weight presses the two metal strips together creating a closed contact. All the strips are connected down both sides of the mat creating one large switch. The individual strips can be cut apart to create individual switches and the mat itself...

Phidget Touch Sensor The 1129 is a capacitive touch sensor and can detect a touch through plastic, glass, or paper. We recommend a material thickness of up to 1/2”. The sensor can work as a close proximity sensor, sensing objects at a distance of up to 1/2” from the board in all directions without direct contact. On the bottom side of the Touch Sensor there is a small exposed metallic pad. A soldered connection can be made to the pad to increase the size and dimensions of the touchable area,...

The RobotGeek Pushbutton is a self-contained Arduino Button board that makes it easy to add a pushbutton to your Arduino Project. This RobotGeek Pushbutton has a built in pull-down resistor, so the signal can be read as a digital input from your Arduino or other microcontroller. This Arduino Button Board has the standard RobotGeek three pin connection so it plugs right into the RobotGeek Sensor Shield to get you up and running immediatly. As with all RobotGeek sensors, the hole mounting...

Rotation sensor, 24 Inch cable included. This sensor rotates 300 Degrees.  The output voltage increases as the potentiometer is turned counterclockwise.

Do you need Rotation Knobs for your Arduino project? The RobotGeek Knob is good choice! It has the standard RobotGeek three pin connection so it plugs right into the RobotGeek Sensor Shield to get you up and running immediatly. As with all RobotGeek sensors, the hole mounting pattern is on a 1x1 CM grid so they easily mount to the RobotGeek Workbenches or any other RobotGeek kit. Each sensor includes a mounting plate and all hardware needed to mount to any workbench or RobotGeek product that...

Multi-turn Rotation Sensor Multi-Turn Rotation sensor with 3600 degrees of rotation (10 full rotations). At fully clockwise the output is 5V and at fully counter clockwise the output is 0. Sensor Type: Resistive 3-Pin Board Dimensions: 3.1 x 3.7 cm Mounting Holes: 2.3 x 3.0 cm Maximum resistance of potentiometer: 200 kOhm. This product is part of the Phidgets family! Phidgets are an easy to use set of USB-based building blocks for low cost sensing and control from your PC. A wide array of...

Mini Joy Stick Sensor Two axis joystick with 10k potentiometers and a momentary switch. Comes with (2) 24-inch sensor cables. This miniature joystick has two axes and a push button.  Pressing down on the Joystick pin will make a mometary contact which can be connected to a digital input through the terminal blocks. NOTE: This joystick auto-centers itself. When you let go of it the joystick will snap back to it's center position. Board Dimensions: 5.1 x 3.0 cm Mounting Holes: 3.0 x 2.3...

60mm Slider, with 24-inch cable. This device is a variable resistor similar to a potentiometer. When the slider is at one side it will read zero and 1000 when the slider is at the other end. Board Dimensions: 3.0 x 9.1 cmMounting Holes: 2.3 x 6.8 cm This product is part of the Phidgets family!

If you are looking for a good Arduino Joystick the RobotGeek Joystick is the best choice. We had these joysticks special made two joystick options; the standard mushroom top used in gaming controllers and a tall stick for much greater range of motion. The joystick has the standard RobotGeek three pin connection and plugs right into the RobotGeek Sensor Shield so you can be up and running immediatly. This arduino joystick is self centering and will return to the home position when let go. The...

The RobotGeek Tilt Sensor is a fast and flexible way to add an Arduino tilt senor Project. By reading this sensor as a digital input, you can determine if an object the sensor is mounted on tilted or not. This sensor is unique because of the orientation of its ports. Instead of having the tilt switch soldered into the board, there are two 2-pin female ports. This allows you to orient your tilt vertically or horizontally to suit your project best. If you need your tilt switch to be further away...
