Grove Shield for Arduino Nano
Grove Shield for Arduino Nano provides you a simple way to connect with Arduino Nano.
This shield help you get rid of breadboard and jumper wires by pulling out the pins of the motherboard and expands to 8 Grove connectors.
Overview
This shield pulls out the pins of the motherboard and expands to 8 Grove connectors, including 3 Grove digital connectors, 3 Grove analog connectors, 1 Grove I2C connector, and 1 Grove UART connector.
With the help of the Grove system, you can connect hundreds of Grove sensors, Grove actuators and Grove displays to the Arduino Nano with a simple plug.
V1.1 Support List:
- Arduino Nano
- Arduino Nano Every
- Arduino Nano 33 IoT*
- Arduino Nano 33 BLE*
- Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense*
*Attention:
To work with Arduino 33 serial boards, please switch the VCC power to 3.3V. If the VCC power supply is switched to 5V, the development board may be damaged!

As robotics advance, the future could certainly involve humans and automated elements working together as a team. The question then becomes, how do you design such an interaction? A team of researchers from Purdue University attempt to provide a solution with their GhostAR system. The setup records human movements for playback later in augmented reality, while a robotic partner is programmed to work around a “ghost” avatar. This enables a user to plan out how to collaborate with the robot and work out kinks before actually performing a task. GhostAR's hardware includes an Oculus Rift headset and IR LED tracking, along with actual robots used in development. Simulation hardware consists of a six-axis Tinkerkit Braccio robot, as well as an Arduino-controlled omni-wheel base that can mount either a robot an arm or a camera as needed. More information on the project can be found in the team's research paper. With GhostX, whatever plan a user makes with the ghost form of the robot while wearing an augmented reality head mount is communicated to the real robot through a cloud connection – allowing both the user and robot to know what the other is doing as they perform a task.The system also allows the user plan a task directly in time and space and without any programming knowledge.First, the user acts out the human part of the task to be completed with a robot. The system then captures the human’s behavior and displays it to the user as an avatar ghost, representing the user’s presence in time and space.Using the human ghost as a time-space reference, the user programs the robot via its own ghost to match up with the human’s role. The user and robot then perform the task as their ghosts did.
