What are Modulino®?

Modulino® are sensors and actuators that simply connect via the UNO R4 WiFi’s onboard Qwiic connector. You can connect more than one for more complex projects and never have to wonder which side goes where, because the connector is polarized.
The Plug and Make Kit includes one of each:

• Modulino® Knob: for super-fine value adjustments
• Modulino® Pixels: eight LEDs to shine bright, dim down, or change color – you choose!
• Modulino® Distance: a time-of-flight proximity sensor to measure distances with precision
• Modulino® Movement: to perfectly capture movements like pitch, roll or tilt
• Modulino® Buzzer: to generate your own alarm sounds or simple tunes
• Modulino® Thermo: a sensor for both temperature and humidity data
• Modulino® Buttons: three buttons for quick project navigation
