  • The MKR ENV Shield allows a MKR board to acquire environmental data collected by an array of sensors.

    These sensors are of the latest generation and measure:

    • Atmospheric pressure
    • Temperature and humidity
    • Ultraviolet UVA intensity Ultraviolet UVB intensity,
    • UV Index (calculated)
    • Light intensity (in LUX)

    To help you build projects and store the data collected locally, this shield has a slot for a microSD card (not provided).

    There is a ready to use library with examples and methods to read values from the different sensors, that provides an easy and smooth integration path.

    Sensors used :  

    • ST LPS22HB :  atmospheric pressure 
    • ST HTS221  : temperature and humidity
    • VISHAY TEMT6000 : Lux of the ambient.
    • VISHAY VEML6075 : UltraViolet wavelengths  A / B
