Product Insight – 1Sheeld+ for Arduino

If you have never heard of the 1Sheeld before, you’ll be amazed on what this product can do. Integreight has created a shield that has the functionality of up to 40 different Arduino shields all into one.

They made this possible by creating a physical board and mobile app platform connection. Specifically, the microcontroller and the Bluetooth module on the board allows your Arduino and smartphone to transmit data between each other, while the app connects to your phone’s or tablet’s sensors becoming the “virtual shields” for your Arduino.  

Upgrading from the original 1Sheeld, the 1Sheeld+ enables your Arduino to connect to both iOS (versions starting from 9.0 and up) and Android (Versions starting from 4.3 and up) devices. It’s Bluetooth module has also been upgraded to a HM-10 module, which has BLE 4.0 technology, and it communicates with the Arduino (3.3 V or 5 V) by using UART ports while having an operating frequency of 7.37 MHz and reaching the range of up to 30 feet.
