The sensor kit contains one each of the following:
Items 1–5 are mounted on cables with stereo connectors (1, 2,& 5 have pull-up resistors inside the connector).
Item 6 is mounted on a cable with a mono connector that connects to a digital port of TNG-3B.
The entire kit sells for $75. The bend sensor is available alone for $30. The other five sensors are $15 each when ordered individually.
Some sensors are pictured at http://www.pulsar.org/2k/technology/widgits.html. The sensors in the kit vary from these illustrations. In particular, the pressure sensor in the kit is postage-stamp sized.
A small 2-axis accelerometer/tilt-sensor is available for $100. It is mounted on a cable with two stereo plugs. See below.
| Sensor Kit for
use with TNG-3B (see individual images of the six sensors immediately
below). Analog sensors employ 1/8" (3.5 mm) stereo plugs. As indicated on
the top label of TNG-3B, the shell (sleeve) is ground, the tip is 5V DC
(power provided by TNG-3B), and the ring of the stereo plug is the signal
contact. $75 |

using antistatic, conductive-plastic sheet sandwiched between copper-foil
sheets, and wrapped with electrical tape (with pull-up resistor in stereo
plug).
