Add a 4-digit, 7-segment display to your Propeller Board of Education project. This simple demo provides wiring diagrams and example Spin code drivers.
The LM34 temperature sensor measures temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, where every degree change is represented by 10.0 millivolts (mV) analog output. This Arduino demo displays the output in the Serial Monitor
The 4-Digit 7-Segment Display is a self-contained module containing four 7-segment LED numeric displays. This demo supporting the 2013 National microMedic Contest uses the display with the Board of Education Shield for Arduino.
Add an LM34 Temperature Sensor to your Propeller Board of Education project. This simple demo provides wiring diagrams and example Spin code that outputs values to the Parallax Serial Terminal or a VGA display.
The Gas Sensor Board, fitted with a CH4 Gas Sensor, allows for the electronic detection of methane gas. This demo for the Board of Education Shield outputs sensor status to the Arduino Serial Monitor.
The Gas C2H5OH Gas Sensor Module allows for the electronic detection of alcohol/benzene concentration present in the air. This demo with the Board of Education Shield displays the sensor's output in the Arduino Serial Monitor.
The Polar Heart Rate transmitter and receiver inspire ideas for the 2013 National microMedic Contest. This KickStart includes code examples for BASIC Stamp, Propeller Spin, and Arduino.
The Gas Sensor Board, fitted with a CO Gas Sensor, allows for the electronic detection of carbon monoxide concentration present in the air. This demo connects the Gas Sensor Board to the Board of Education Shield and outputs sensor status to the Arduino Serial Monitor.
The Freescale MPX 5020 Pressure Sensor in the 2013 National microMedic Contest Kit can detect positive and negative air pressure changes. This tutorial connects the pressure sensor to the Board of Education Shield and uses the Serial Monitor to display data.
Add color-sensing capability to your Propeller Board of Education with the ColorPal color sensor. This simple Spin-language demo displays raw RGB values on a VGA display or the Parallax Serial Terminal, changing the background color to match what the ColorPal sees.
This Pressure Sensor and 10-segment Bar Graph LED are included in the 2013 National micrMedic Kit. This Spin-language demo for the Propeller Board of Education will help you get started.
The ColorPAL is a sensor for detecting the color of a surface. This tutorial connects a ColorPal to a BOE Shield for Arduino for reading a pH test strip.
Two reed switches and two magnets are included in the 2013 National microMedic Contest Kit. This Board of Education Shield for Arduino demo provides example sketches for simple use of one switch and magnet, or a more advanced use of two switches and magnets together.
The Nellcor SpO2 Sensor for pulse rate and blood oxygenation is included in the 2013 National microMedic Contest Kit. This Propeller Spin demo takes readings from this sensor's photodiode while infrared and red LEDs light alternately, and displays the raw data in a Serial Terminal.
The TSL235R Light to Frequency Converter registers the intensity of light, and outputs a corresponding stream of pulses. This demo connects the TSL235R to the Board of Education Shield for Arduino and displays sensor values in the Serial Monitor.
The 10 LED bar graph display is a self-contained package consisting of 10 individual rectangular LEDs. The LED in the package has its own anode and cathode leads, allowing for flexible hookup.
