Because of the affordability and seeming ubiquity of the Arduino platform, they have been hard at work this last month trying to get their Geiger counter sensor board for an Arduino out the door.

That’s right, these parking sensors are powered by an Arduino board, and the only extra components that were used in the project are a HC SR04 ultrasonic sensor, an active buzzer, and jumper wires.

With over 20 unique sensor types, and the ability to be used with several different development platforms, Tarts wireless sensors allow for endless sensing, monitoring and control possibilities.

Standex Electronics has created a series of mini magnetic field sensing reed switches, optimised to control up to 10W, 200V or 500mA. Called MK33, they are bare glass surface-mount reed switches with ...
