Our friends over [adafruit] recently released the Sensor Pack 900, a collection of parts for anyone who is interested in using analog sensors with their projects. The pack includes 9 sensors. They range from simple thermistors and hall effect sensors to sharp distance sensors. Also included in the pack are 3 unidentified components that can be used to interface with the analog sensors in the pack. At only $30, the Sensor Pack 900 seems to offer a great set of introductory components for anyone prototyping a new device.

They all take 1.21 jigawatts to power.

Nice thing, as a starter and universal playground. Let’s hope that they’ll offer these sensors individually, or at least as not-so-universal packs targeted at, say, a typical robot builder.

2.21 jiggawatts googfan… 2.21…
Nice looking kit though. Not my cup of tea, but for robotics, home automation or cool new computer input device, it’d be sweet.
