Grove - Arduino Starter Kit Plus [Product]

I discovered another Arduino sensor start kit today via an email from MassDrop. MassDrop is a site which promotes group purchases of products in order to give everyone a lower price.

if you aren’t keen on using MassDrop, you can pick up the same starter kit directly from Amazon using the links below.

This kit does NOT include the Arduino board itself, but it does come with the Grove Shield which attached to Arduino Uno or Arduino 101 and provides solder free connections between the Arduino and the sensors. This might come in handy if you are working with kids, as it means that can’t really connect up the sensors in a way that might damage them.

From Amazon.com...

Grove is a modular electronic platform for quick prototyping. Every module has one function, such as touch sensing, creating audio effect and so on. Just plug the modules you need to the base shield, then you are ready to test your idea buds.

This Grove Starter Kit Plus is a upgraded version of our Grove Starter Kit. We included more frequently encountered modules in this kit to support your concept buildup. Meanwhile, we totally refreshed the whole image of this kit with eye-catching green and user-friendly booklet and stickers. If you were ever held back by the serious face of electronic modules, then it's time to review the point and discover the new face of it.
