Grove Shield for Arduino Nano
Sold out
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*

As Jallson Suryo discusses in his project, adding voice controls to our appliances typically involves an internet connection and a smart assistant device such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. This means extra latency, security concerns, and increased expenses due to the additional hardware and bandwidth requirements. This is why he created a prototype based on an Arduino Nicla Voice that can provide power for up to four outlets using just a voice command. Suryo gathered a dataset by repeating the words “one," “two," “three," “four," “on," and “off” into his phone and then uploaded the recordings to an Edge Impulse project. From here, he split the files into individual words before rebalancing his dataset to ensure each label was equally represented. The classifier model was trained for keyword spotting and used Syntiant NDP120-optimal settings for voice to yield an accuracy of around 80%. Apart from the Nicla Voice, Suryo incorporated a Pro Micro board to handle switching the bank of relays on or off. When the Nicla Voice detects the relay number, such as “one” or “three," it then waits until the follow-up “on” or “off” keyword is detected. With both the number and state now known, it sends an I2C transmission to the accompanying Pro Micro which decodes the command and switches the correct relay.
