Barcode Scanner Modules for Development Boards

Build a scanner directly into your machine. These scanners are often used in kiosks for scanning standard barcodes and QR codes to identify items, track documents, and manage inventory. Solder on a wire or header to connect the scanner to your electronic device. For a direct connection to your computer, plug in a USB cable (not included).

Environmental-Monitoring Modules for Development Boards

Keep equipment running and working conditions safe—these modules add air quality tracker capabilities to your development board. Each module gathers data on air conditions, ranging from temperature and humidity to carbon dioxide or volatile organic compound (VOC) levels. These modules easily connect to boards and other components with Qwiic cords or by soldering.

Modules with Air Quality Sensor

Modules with an air quality sensor identify spikes in VOC levels to track air quality changes. Instead of directly measuring VOCs, they measure how much the VOC level has changed in the last 24 hours.
