Description

Product description: Environmental sensor - overlay for Raspberry Pi - Waveshare 20471

Environmental sensor overlay for Raspberry Pi equipped with a range of useful sensors. It has a built-in sensor for temperature, humidity, air pressure, ambient light for measuring infrared and visible light, a 9 DoF motion sensor, a sensor for measuring UV rays, and a VOC sensor for detecting volatile organic compounds in the environment. The overlay uses the I2C bus for communication. It is powered by a voltage of 5 V.
