The Gravity Sensor Kit for Intel Joule is an amazing plug-and-play electronics tool kit. It offers inventors and IoT developers a super quick and easy way to prototype and turn concepts into products using the Intel JouleTM Module. This module is a Linux-based System on a Module (SoM). It combines a 64-bit, Quad-Core compute engine with power management, wireless connectivity, high-speed I/O, and Intel RealSense compatibility, all powered by Intel HD Graphics. To make the Intel JouleTM Module work well with more modules and be easier to use, we've added the Gravity expansion shield to the kit. This shield adds analog input support, a switchable 3.3V/5V power voltage, and standard extended connectors that are compatible with DFRobot Gravity Series sensors and modules. Inside the package, there are 14 carefully selected DFRobot Gravity electronic modules. They cover various IoT scenarios like temperature sensing, motion detection, gesture recognition, and power control. Thanks to the wireless connectivity of the Intel JouleTM Module, you can access all the data from anywhere in the world. Note that the Joule compute module and expansion board are not included. If you're into Arduino, check out sensors for Arduino, and explore more with the sensor kit. Features: It's a plug-and-play electronics toolkit for Intel Joule.

Using the Gravity Sensor Kit for Intel Joule is a breeze. First, make sure you have all the components from the shipping list. The Joule compute module and expansion board aren't included, so you'll need to have those ready separately. Connect the Gravity expansion shield to the Intel JouleTM Module. You can then start attaching the different sensors and modules to the shield using the provided cables. With the wireless connectivity, you can easily access the data collected by the sensors from anywhere in the world. When using the sensors, make sure to follow the appropriate voltage requirements (either 5V or 3.3V) as specified in the specifications. Store the components in the high-quality tool box with adjustable grids to keep everything neat and organized. As for maintenance, keep the sensors and modules clean and dry. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or humidity. If you notice any issues with a sensor or module, check the connections first. If the problem persists, refer to the product documentation or contact customer support.
