The Gravity Arduino Starter Kit is a fantastic plug-and-play electronics toolkit. It's perfect for Arduino beginners and makers, offering an easy way to learn and have fun with the Arduino platform. This kit comes with a DFRduino UNO R3 microcontroller, which works just like the Arduino UNO, and 12 popular and interesting electric components and sensors. Thanks to the IO expansion shield, you can connect sensors directly to the board without jumper wires or a breadboard. The sensors belong to DFRobot's Gravity Series. They are highly modular and interact with microcontrollers via 3-pin pinheads. You can easily tell different types of sensors apart by the logo on the back of the PCB board. All components in the kit are fully compatible with Arduino microcontrollers. With this kit, creating your project is as easy as playing with building blocks. The kit also includes a tutorial to help Arduino learners understand programming. It covers software installation, the Arduino IDE, and the programming language. You'll learn how to build electric circuits, use different components, and understand their signals. The tutorial also has instructions for projects, from lighting up an LED to creating real projects like a 'Fire Alarm' or a 'Weather Station'. It's full of graphs and written in a simple way, so anyone can build their own projects with no problem. Specification: Microcontroller - DFRduino UNO R3; Power Supply - 6*AA Batteries or 6 - 12V AC power adapter; Dimension - 220cm * 165cm * 65 cm; Weight - 300g. Documents: Gravity Starter Kit for Arduino Tutorial, Example Code (Github). Shipping List: DFR0216 DFRduino UNO R3 x1, DFR0265 Gravity: IO Expansion Shield for Arduino V7.1 x1, and more.




Using the Arduino Gravity Starter Kit is easy. First, make sure you have the power supply ready, either 6 AA batteries or a 6 - 12V AC power adapter. Then, connect the sensors to the board using the IO expansion shield. Just plug them in, no need for jumper wires or a breadboard. The sensors are easy to identify by the logo on the back. Next, follow the tutorial to install the software and the Arduino IDE. Learn the programming language and start building circuits. You can begin with simple projects like making an LED blink and then move on to more complex ones. When handling the components, be gentle to avoid damage. Keep the kit in a dry and clean place. If you're not using it for a long time, remove the batteries. If you face any issues, refer to the tutorial or the example code on Github. Have fun exploring the world of electronics with this kit!
