Open Heart Kit
A fun soldering project from Jimmie P Rodgers. It's the programmable Open Heart LED Kit! The Open Heart is an LED matrix of individually addressable LEDs. It can be used to create a broach or bag light with highly customizable animations. It can be configured so that you can temporarily attach it to fabrics with headers that you simply push through, or you can sew it into a project using conductive thread/wire for a more permanent setup. I have also created a simple flash programmer that you can design animations with, and it will generate the Arduino code for you. That way you just copy, paste, upload, and enjoy.

MakerBot® Magnetic Linear Encoder v1.2 Kit
A Magnetic Linear Encoder v1.2 Kit that can determine position down to 15 Microns. That's a tiny position! Great for your machine, robotics, or hacking projects! The MakerBot® Magnetic Linear Encoder v1.2 is a fantastic building block for positioning systems. The core of this board is the AS5306 chip. This chip is what is commonly called an encoder. What is does is measure and report its location. It does this by reading the changes in the magnetic field as the chip changes position. What this means is that when properly assembled, this board will allow you to detect the the position of something like a linear axis. If you combine this with a motor and a microcontroller, then you can build a closed-loop positioning system whose speed and position can be precisely determined and controlled. You can use it to build machines, or use it as a sensor for sliders, like a mixing board. Can be connected in multiple to Arduino.

Thermocouple Sensor v1.0 Kit
Need to measure crazy high temperatures accurately and reliably? Want a super simple board to handle it? Look no further. This is a simple board for measuring temperature. It uses an AD595 chip to make thermocouple measurements easy. The AD595 amplifies the thermocouple signal and conditions it for easy use. Thermocouples are great due to their linearity over a large range, and their high temperature capability (up to 1300C!) Click here for full documentation and sources.

Temperature Sensor v2.0 Kit
Want a cheap, simple way of measuring temperature in the range of 0-300C? We have the solution for you! This board allows you to use a thermistor to measure the temperature of something. It is designed to be used to measure things in the range of 100C - 300C, but with the proper calibration and resistors, it can be adapted to any temperature range you need (under 300C). If you need something that can measure temperatures above 300C, you should look into the Thermocouple Sensor.
