This Rich Shield has many basic components onboard such as LED, button, buzzer. It is easy and great for Arduino trainer and starter.
It also leads out two I2C ports for you to connect I2C device such as DS1307 RTC, I2C 1602 LCD. And lead out UART port for to connect serial control device such as OPEN-SMART serial MP3 player, serial Bluetooth, serial wifi, serial 125k RFID.
What projects you can learn to do:
Control LED on / off
Light sensor control LED
Passive buzzer play tone
Button detect
Knob control LED brightness
Temperature measurement and display
Voltage measurement and display
Temperature and humidity measurement
Infrared remote control
Sensor measurement and information storage(24C02 EEPROM)
If you get more I2C device and UART device, you can make more wonderful projects.
