The High Precision Temperature Sensor is now in full production! We also have a new machine imaging camera designed specifically for the SparkFun Edge Dev Board!
Let's take a quick look at the current offerings of the popular LIDAR-Lite from Garmin!
I'm using six of the same sensor in my fiber optic suit, with only four hardware configurable addresses. I need to take advantage of my ESP32 to create multiple I2C buses.
When it comes to proximity and distance sensing, LiDAR has a lot to offer. With Garmin's LiDAR-Lite v4, there are some new features and advances you're definitely going to want to see.
Many of us at SparkFun consume coffee for breakfast, maybe lunch or dinner, but for some go-getters it's all three. Join me as I dig into the habits and trends of our breakroom coffee setup.
The new A111 Pulsed Radar Breakout is looking good in red! We also have a new kit that makes it easy to get started with micro:bit!
What do you do after the SparkFun Inventor's Kit? The world of electronics using Arduino is vast – here are a few tutorials to help take your projects to the next level!
A new biometric Qwiic sensor is here! We also have a new electric screwdriver and a USB Power Meter.
The trail-ready lightning detector has been out in the wild getting some good use. As summer nears its end, it is a great time to take the project back to the drawing board and figure out what should be upgraded, what should be added and what can be removed – just in time for some fall outdoor adventures!
After a short time in retirement, the SparkX A111 Breakout Board is coming back to life as part of the Get Sparked program!
New versions of the Teensy Audio Adaptor and the EasyVR 3 Shield are here, along with a new HC-SR04 Distance Sensor and a SparkFun-made 16GB NOOBS Card.
We've revised our AS3935 Lightning Detector, and we have a new Level Translator Breakout!
A Qwiic-enabled Ambient Light Sensor is here, along with an updated LilyPad LED board!
We recognize the pun and will not apologize. A new 9DoF IMU is here, along with a capacitive fingerprint scanner and a few other new products!
The new OpenMV H7 is here, along with a new Buck-Boost Converter, a few revisions to our micro:bit kits, and a latching solenoid!
Recently, a team from the St. Vrain Innovation Center assembled its first custom PCB design with the help of SparkFun. This is the story behind their project and their experience.
The SparkFun Edge is now shipping! With it, we also have a new DMX to LED Shield for your SparkFun Thing Plus, the new Taz Pro 3D Printer, high-grade flex sensors from Bend Labs, and some headers and cables!
