CAN-BUS Shield V2 adopts MCP2515 and MCP2551 for controller and transceiver, it is compatible with Arduino which means it can switch an Arduino board like Arduino Uno to start your CAN-BUS project.

The mmWave Radar fall detection module is a self-contained, privacy-protectively, safety mmWave module operating at 24GHz.

 The Grove shield for micro:bit is a plug-and-play grove extension board for micro:bit, the shield acts as a bridge for micro:bit and our grove system, which provides hundreds of different grove modules including sensor, actuator, communication, display etc. that will broaden micro:bit’s ability in creating more projects easily and quickly.

• 4 Grove ports to cover different interfaces
• Edge connectors for crocodile clip and 4mm banana plugs
• On-board USB port to power up your micro:bit

This is an industrial USB to RS232/485/TTL isolated converter with original FT232RL inside.

Grove - UART WiFi V2.0(ESP8285) is a serial transceiver module featuring the ubiquitous ESP8285 IoT SoC. 

• Grove 4-pin connector (RX,TX,VCC,GND)
• 802.11 b/g/n protocol (2.4GHz)
• WiFi Direct (P2P), soft-AP
• Supports three modes: AP, STA and AP+STA coexistence mode
• Integrated TCP/IP protocol stack
• Integrated low power 32-bit CPU could be reprogrammed as an application processor
• Multi-queue QoS management
• Wake up and transmit packets in < 2ms

Grove - GSR Sensor stands for galvanic skin response and it is a method of measuring the electrical conductance of the skin. It is an interesting gear to create emotion-related projects like sleep quality monitor. In some galvanic skin response devices such as lie detectors, this scientific principle is also applied.

• Detects conductance of skin
• Finger Straps for electrodes
