CO₂ sensors are essential for determining if a room is too 'stuffy' - high CO₂ makes humans grumpy and tired. That's why it's always nice to take a deep breath outside where CO₂ is about 400 ppm. However, until now, CO₂ sensors were always really chunky (like the SCD-30) or pricey (like the SCD-40). Inexpensive sensors like the SGP30 approximate the CO₂...

The TMP119 High-Precision Temperature Sensor is an I2C temperature sensor that will help you easily add super-precise temperature measurement and adjustment to your project.

We stock many low cost "Passive IR" Presence / Motion sensors, and they're very popular for detecting motion from humanoids and pets 5 to 20 feet away. (They possibly work on zombies, not guaranteed, depends on how warm they are). The vast majority of PIR sensors use a chunky infrared receiver, a processing chip (sometimes integrated into the receiver) and a lens....

ESP32-S2 Saola-1 is a small-sized ESP32-S2 based development board produced by Espressif. Just about all of the I/O pins are broken out to the pin headers on both sides for easy interfacing. Developers can either connect peripherals with jumper wires or mount ESP32-S2 Saola-1 on a breadboard - we recommend two breadboards 'side-by-side' since the Saola is a bit wide...

Using our muscles to control things is how most of us are accustomed to doing it.
