Introducing the new IoT Proto Shield Plus

Introducing the new IoT Proto Shield Plus board

The IoT Proto Shield Plus is designed to let you easily prototype with ESP32, ESP8266 and ARDUINO NANO boards.

Swapping from ESP32 to ESP8266 to NANO, is fast and easy.

On-board rotary encoder, touch sensor, potentiometer, LEDs and a speaker make easy to quickly setup your testing environment.

A wide variety of Plug and Play sockets, for the most common additional modules, lets you expand your projects integrating OLED, LCD or 7segment displays, relay, SD card memory, Real Time Clock, Humidity sensor, LDR (light sensor), PTC or NTC (temperature sensors), microphone, MP3 Player, servo and stepper motor, in just the time to plug the additional modules into the board.
