Overview
The Gravity: I2C Oxygen Sensor is based on electrochemical principles and it can measure the ambient O2 concentration accurately and conveniently. With high anti-interference ability, high stablility and high sensitivity, this arduino-compatible oxygen sensor can be widely applied to fields like portable device, air quality monitoring device, and industries, mines, warehouses and other spaces where air is not easy to circulate.
This compact dfrobot oxygen sensor supports I2C output, it can be calibrated in the air, can accurately measure the oxygen concentration in the environmentit. It is compatible with many mainboards like Arduino Uno, esp32, Raspberry Pi and so on. Its effective range is 0~25%Vol, and resolution can reach to 0.15%Vol. It supports wide range input voltage: 3.3V to 5.5V.
Moreover, the lifetime is as long as 2 years. With simple Gravity interface and practical sample code, you can build your own oxygen concentration monitor easily and conveniently.

Robot using Arduino Nano 33 BLE Camera Shield.
A lot of newer cars have a really nifty feature called “proximity unlock,” which automatically unlocks the doors when the driver approaches while carrying their key fob. When paired with a push-to-start ignition switch, the driver never has to take their keys out of their pocket. But Nick’s 2004 Subaru STI is too old to have come with that feature from the factory, so he used a couple of Arduino boards to create a DIY proximity unlock system. Car manufacturers need to pay serious attention to security when designing their access and ignition systems, but Nick had a bit more freedom. It is unlikely that any thieves would suspect his car of possessing a feature like this and so they wouldn’t even bother trying to hack it. Nick’s proximity unlock works by evaluating the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of Bluetooth® Low Energy connection. If all else is equal, RSSI is inversely proportional to distance and that makes it useful for rough proximity detection. An Arduino Nano 33 BLE inside the car unlocks the doors when it has an active BLE connection with an RSSI over a set threshold. It unlocks the doors by shorting the switch with a 12V relay and it receives power from the car’s 12V system through a buck converter. The driver-carried device (equivalent to a key fob) can be either another Nano 33 BLE or Nick’s smartphone. In fact, it can be any device with a BLE adapter, so long as it can connect to the in-car Arduino with the proper device name. Now, Nick can enjoy his classic car and the convenience of proximity unlock.
