Multi-function Environmental Module - CCS811+BME280
Sold outBuild up a simple environmental monitor station with this multi-function environment sensor!
Overview
Build up a simple environmental monitor station with this multi-function environment sensor! Based on the combination of CCS811+BME280 chip, this module features high accuracy, I2C interface, and fast Measurement.
The BME280 can provide temperature and humidity compensation for CCS811 to improve the whole accuracy to a certain extent. It can be used to detect temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, altitude, TVOC, and eCO2.
CCS811 air quality sensor uses AMS's unique micro-hot plate technology. Compared with conventional gas sensors, it has lower power consumption, shorter preheating time, and smaller size. The internally integrated ADC and MCU allow it to collect and process data, and return via I2C.
BME280 is an environmental sensor that combines temperature sensor, humidity sensor, and barometer in one board. It has high precision, multiple functions, small size, etc. The sensor offers ±0.5℃ temperature error and ±2%RH humidity error.
It provides very stable performance within the detection temperature range. Besides, the offset temperature coefficient is ±1.5 Pa/K, equiv. to ±12.6 cm at 1 °C temperature change.
NOTE: The chip has stretched the clock in I2C. So, it may be not compatible with some controllers, such as Raspberry Pi.

While it’s yet to make its premiere, Matt Denton has already built the D-O droid from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker using a MKR WiFi 1010 for control, along with a MKR IMU Shield and a MKR Motor Carrier. The droid scoots around on what appears to be one large wheel, which conceals the Arduino boards as well as other electronics, batteries, and mechanical components. Denton’s wheel design is a bit more complicated mechanically than it first appears, as its split into a center section, with thin drive wheels on the side that enable differential steering. On top, a cone-shaped head provides sounds and movement, giving the little RC D-O a ton of personality. The droid isn’t quite finished as of the video below, but given how well it works there, the end product should be amazing!
