Gravity: Nano I/O Shield
Sold outExpand your Arduino board with the sensor you prefer! Easy and straightforward connectivity with every Gravity sensor.
Overview
The Nano I/O Sensor Shield is an expansion board for the Arduino Nano. There are several different options for power input. The form factor of the Nano I/O Shield board is the same as the Arduino UNO/Arduino Leonardo. In addition, the sensor shield adopts Gravity interface that each pinout includes 5V and GND pins for easy connection to Gravity sensors or servos. To the best compatibility, the shield supports jumper wires for rapid prototyping.
This unit comes fully assembled. The board also has a space specifically for bluetooth module and ACP220. Several I2C pins are also expanded.
The shield has independent power supply to provide extra power for servo and other sensors.

While taking photos today is normally a digital affair, there is a wealth of visual information stored on film negatives. Digitization is possible, but it tends to be rather time-intensive, so photographer/hacker Seckin Sinan Isik decided to automate the process. His setup uses a film carrier augmented with a stepper motor and belt drive to advance the 35mm film under a tripod-mounted digital camera. This is controlled by an Arduino Nano, with the camera’s view shown via a video capture device on a nearby computer. In one mode, the user can adjust the film position semi-manually using pushbuttons, then scan the negative. The whole process can also be automated, with a Python computer vision routine. More details on the project can ben found in Isik's PetaPixel article here.
