Arduino has introduced 4 new entries in its Modulino household of solderless add-on boards: the Modulino Latch Relay, Modulino Mild, Modulino Joystick, and Modulino Vibro.
“In case you’ve ever wished to go from thought to prototype in minutes – with out fidgeting with wiring diagrams or debugging connections – then you definately in all probability already know (and love!) Modulino,” the Arduino crew writes of its newest launch and the merchandise which preceded it. “These compact, plug-and-play nodes have made it simpler than ever to prototype, be taught, and construct with Arduino. And now the ecosystem is getting even greater.”

Arduino’s Modulino vary of solderless breakout boards began life as a part of the corporate’s Arduino Plug and Make Equipment, earlier than being launched as particular person devices in their very own proper. Designed for prototyping and experimentation with out the necessity for a breadboard, they hyperlink to suitable Arduino boards’ Qwiic connectors over quick lengths of cable — and the household is now 4 fashions bigger.
The 4 new fashions are: the Latch Relay, which offers a manner of simply switching high-power masses; the Mild, an ambient brightness detector with IR detection and shade recognition; the Joystick, concentrating on gaming and robotics management initiatives; and the Vibro, a haptic suggestions board promising “silent vibration.”

All boards work with any Modulino-compatible improvement board, together with not solely the corporate’s newest Arduino UNO Q single-board laptop however the earlier UNO R4 WiFi, compact Nesso N1, Nano R4, and the Nano Join Provider. They’re additionally suitable with different 3.3V-logic Arduino boards utilizing a Qwiic-to-breadboard jumper cable or headers on the aspect of every board — and instance code for each Arduino-flavored C/C++ with the Wiring library and MicroPython are offered.
The Modulino Latch Relay, Modulino Mild, Modulino Joystick, and Modulino Vibro are actually all in the stores on the Arduino retailer, priced at $10.09, $8.27, $15.23, and $11.36 respectively.
