Prototyping with Shields

In this chapter, you will learn about the sensors that you can work with without having to use a solderless breadboard and cables. When working with breadboards and cables, you might find that something has stopped working because of a loose cable connection. You might also find that you have run out of space on a breadboard. This is where shields come in handy. You will create a project that works with one of these shields: the environment shield. You will also get an introduction to carrier boards and will build a project that makes use of the MKR IoT Carrier. The projects will help build your confidence in collecting data without using breadboards and give you a strong foundation for adding complexity to your setups ...
